According to Fox News, the ceasefire came after critical discussions between US President Donald Trump and Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. Fox News reported that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir persuaded the US President to postpone any military action, enabling ongoing negotiations between the two nations.

The BBC stated that, at Pakistan’s request, the US and Iran have agreed to a two-week ceasefire, during which attacks will be suspended and the strategic Strait of Hormuz will remain open—a key development for global trade.

Al Jazeera highlighted that the temporary ceasefire was made possible due to Pakistan’s effective diplomacy, and confirmed that high-level talks between the US and Iran will take place in Islamabad on April 10, 2026.

While celebrations and international praise continue globally, Israeli media have reportedly downplayed the ceasefire. Instead, they focused on reports of sirens sounding in Tel Aviv, with limited attention given to President Trump’s announcement and the historic Pakistan-mediated agreement.
