Briefing by News4U · First published

Qatari mediators arrived in Tehran on Friday morning in a bid to revive a ceasefire between the United States and Iran, Al Jazeera reported, citing Iran’s state news agency IRNA. The delegation, coordinated with US officials and led by a senior adviser to Qatar’s prime minister and foreign minister, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, came after a letter from US Vice President JD Vance to Iranian security chief Mohsen Rezaei proposed a framework for negotiations. The push coincides with reports that President Donald Trump has warned Gulf allies to prepare for a brief high-intensity military campaign after next week’s US midterm elections. Sources told Al Jazeera a meeting could be held within a week in Doha or Istanbul as Qatar seeks Iran’s response. [1]
