The United States and Iran have agreed to extend their 60-day ceasefire ahead of the August 17 deadline, easing immediate concerns over a renewed escalation between the two sides.
The extension is expected to provide additional time for diplomatic efforts and negotiations aimed at preventing a return to open conflict.
An Iranian military adviser, meanwhile, claimed that US military forces were “weaker than what we perceived”, offering a notably defiant assessment despite the continuation of the ceasefire.
The latest developments reflect the fragile nature of the truce, with diplomatic progress and military rhetoric continuing to shape relations between Washington and Tehran.
The extended ceasefire could provide a crucial window for both sides to pursue a longer-term arrangement and reduce regional tensions.
