Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi is expected to arrive in Tehran on Saturday for talks with senior Iranian officials regarding the recently signed Iran-US Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), according to Iran's ISNA news agency citing Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei.

Baghaei said Naqvi will hold meetings with Iranian Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi to discuss various aspects of the agreement. According to diplomatic sources quoted by ISNA, the discussions will focus on issues including the removal of economic sanctions, mechanisms to verify both sides' commitments, and matters related to Iran's nuclear programme.

The Persian Gulf Strait Authority announced on Saturday that vessels can apply for passage through the Strait of Hormuz during the designated period, provided they comply with the required procedures. Tensions in the region remain high as renewed Israeli strikes in Lebanon reportedly killed five people, including two minors and a Lebanese soldier, according to Lebanon's National News Agency (NNA). The escalation threatens to undermine the fragile stability sought under the recently signed US-Iran MoU.

The 14-point agreement calls for an immediate and lasting halt to military operations, including those involving Lebanon, and commits both sides to finalizing a broader agreement within 60 days, with the possibility of an extension by mutual consent. Adding to the tensions, Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir sparked controversy on Friday with comments posted on X advocating stronger military action in Lebanon. His remarks drew widespread criticism after he wrote that Lebanon should face severe consequences in response to attacks on Israel, arguing that Israeli security must remain a top priority regardless of international pressure.
