The agreement is reportedly conditional on Iran ensuring the complete and safe reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil route.
The development follows heightened tensions and strong warnings from Trump, who had earlier threatened severe consequences if Iran failed to meet U.S. demands.
Diplomatic efforts involving the United States, Iran, and mediators such as Pakistan helped to secure the temporary truce and avert a broader escalation of the conflict.
