Iran has proposed a new plan to the United States via Pakistani intermediaries aimed at reopening the Strait of Hormuz and ending the ongoing war, according to reports. The conflict began on February 28 following joint US-Israeli strikes on Iran. Donald Trump said Iran could directly contact Washington to negotiate, emphasising open communication channels.
