According to a report from the Saudi Al-Arabiya channel, cited by N12 journalist Sapir Lipkin, Pakistan's army chief is holding contacts with Iranian officials in an effort to contain the regional escalation. The report, which is based on a single source, has not been independently confirmed.
The Zioneer has previously reported on Pakistan's diplomatic role in the current crisis. In recent weeks, Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif met with Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei in Tehran, and Pakistani army chief General Asim Munir has been involved in mediation efforts alongside Qatari and UAE leaders. The US has also been leveraging Pakistani channels to prevent an Iranian strike on Israel, as The Zioneer reported.
The details of the current contacts remain unclear, and the report should be treated as a developing diplomatic development.
