A step back from the brink’: European leaders welcome US-Iran ceasefire
Announcement of deal met with relief and calls for strait of Hormuz to be reopened and permanent end to hostilities.
The US and Iran agreed a two-week conditional ceasefire on Tuesday, including a temporary reopening of the strait of Hormuz, after last-minute diplomacy from Pakistan. The Israeli military said on Wednesday it was continuing “fighting and ground operations” in its war against the Lebanese militia Hezbollah, despite a statement from Pakistan that Lebanon was included in the ceasefire.
