Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister said the 'Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding' has been finalized and will be signed Friday in Switzerland. He claimed the U.S. naval blockade on Iran is being lifted as of tonight and announced an immediate permanent end to military operations on all fronts including Lebanon. The remarks are part of a 60-day negotiation framework beginning after Washington fulfills its commitments, according to Tehran.
Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister has now provided the most detailed official breakdown yet of the emerging U.S.-Iran agreement, framing it as a comprehensive strategic victory for Tehran. In an interim summary timed at Monday 08:53 Jerusalem, he confirmed that the final draft of the 'Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding' has been completed and will be signed on Friday in Switzerland. He asserted that the U.S. naval blockade on Iran is being lifted as of tonight, and announced an immediate and permanent cessation of war and military operations on all fronts, including the Lebanese front. The minister argued that the memorandum reflects both diplomatic gains and 'military achievements and the steadfastness of the people'. He said the text includes all of Iran's 'central and important positions' and that the full document will be published after the official signing. The agreement does not indicate trust in the enemy, he clarified, but was designed from a position of distrust, with Iran vowing to monitor U.S. compliance. A 60-day negotiation phase will begin only after Washington fulfills its commitments — specifically the lifting of the blockade and the release of frozen Iranian assets. The threats Iran made overnight helped advance the talks, he added, without specifying. The claims come as The Zioneer has tracked this unfolding diplomatic announcement throughout the night and morning, with multiple Iranian official sources and state-aligned outlets describing the same framework since the early hours. The signing ceremony is planned for Friday, and Israeli officials have yet to issue a formal response to the reported terms.
