US Media: US and Iran Agree to Halt Attacks and Hold Talks This Week

The United States and Iran have agreed to cease attacks against each other following days of reciprocal airstrikes triggered by Iranian military attacks on merchant vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz, the US online media outlet Axios reported on Saturday, June 27 (local time).

According to the report, which cited a senior US official, the official stated, "We have decided to halt all kinetic military operations."

Furthermore, both sides plan to meet in Doha, the capital of Qatar, on June 30 to resolve the dispute surrounding the Strait of Hormuz.

Axios explained that the June 30 meeting between the US and Iran was originally scheduled to be held in Switzerland to discuss Iran's nuclear program. However, following Iran's attack on civilian vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz on June 25, which led to retaliatory US airstrikes and subsequent Iranian counterattacks, the venue was changed and the focus of the discussions shifted to the Strait of Hormuz.
