        "summary": "US President Donald Trump has suspended a planned military strike on Iran for two weeks following mediation by Pakistan, conditional on Iran reopening the Strait of Hormuz and halting its operations. Iran's Foreign Minister confirmed a temporary agreement, expressing willingness to cease defensive actions if attacks on Iran stop, with further talks scheduled in Islamabad. This development offers potential de-escalation in the ongoing five-week conflict between the US-Israel alliance and Iran, which has already resulted in over 2,000 deaths, amid international concerns over violations of international law.",
        "content": "<p>The US government faces a policy dilemma with no truly comfortable\noptions. US President Donald Trump has decided to suspend plans for a\nmilitary attack on Iran for two weeks, just hours before the deadline he\nhad set himself. This decision came after Trump issued strong threats\nthat the entire civilisation would perish that night if Tehran did not\nmeet Washington\u2019s demands. Trump announced this via his Truth Social\naccount on Tuesday (7 April) evening local time, about an hour and a\nhalf before the attack deadline. In his statement, Trump revealed that\nthe decision followed communication with Pakistani officials acting as\nmediators. He mentioned that Pakistan\u2019s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif\nand Field Marshal Asim Munir asked him to hold back the attack plans.\nHowever, the suspension comes with conditions: Iran must immediately\nreopen the Strait of Hormuz. \u201cBased on conversations with Prime Minister\nShehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir from Pakistan, they asked me\nto hold back the destructive force sent tonight to Iran on the condition\nthat the Islamic Republic of Iran agrees to the full, immediate, and\nsafe opening of the Strait of Hormuz. I agree to suspend the bombing and\nattacks on Iran for two weeks,\u201d Trump wrote, as reported by Al Jazeera\non Wednesday (8 April). Shortly after the statement, Iran\u2019s Foreign\nMinister Seyed Abbas Araghchi confirmed a temporary agreement. He stated\nthat Iran is willing to halt its military operations if attacks on his\ncountry are stopped. \u201cIf attacks on Iran are halted, our Mighty Armed\nForces will stop their defensive operations,\u201d Araghchi wrote. He also\nadded that over the next two weeks, a safe route in the Strait of Hormuz\ncan be opened through coordination with Iran\u2019s military. Additionally,\nAraghchi expressed appreciation to Pakistan for its last-minute\nmediation efforts. Further talks between the relevant parties are\nplanned to take place in Islamabad soon. Previously, tensions had\nsharply escalated ahead of the attack deadline. Trump had posted a\nthreatening statement in the morning, sparking global concerns. \u201cThe\nentire civilisation will die tonight, it will never be able to be\nrevived,\u201d Trump wrote. \u201cI don\u2019t want that to happen, but it might\nhappen,\u201d he continued. He also described the moment as one of the most\nimportant in the world\u2019s long and complex history. In his latest\nstatement, Trump again claimed success for US military strategy and said\nIran has submitted an acceptable ceasefire proposal. \u201cThis will be a\ntwo-sided ceasefire,\u201d he wrote. \u201cThe reason we are doing this is because\nwe have met and exceeded all military objectives and reached a\ndefinitive agreement on long-term peace with Iran as well as peace in\nthe Middle East. We have received a 10-point proposal from Iran and\nbelieve it is an implementable basis for negotiation,\u201d he said. Trump\nemphasised that the next two weeks will be used to finalise the peace\nagreement. He even expressed optimism that most differences between the\ntwo countries have been resolved. \u201cAlmost all past points of contention\nhave been agreed between the United States and Iran,\u201d he said. \u201cIt is an\nhonour to see this long-standing issue almost resolved,\u201d he added. On\nthe other hand, the announcement has been met with mixed reactions. Al\nJazeera correspondent Osama Bin Javaid assessed that the decision could\nease tensions in the Middle East region, which was previously on the\nbrink of major escalation. \u201cIt will be a collective relief for this\nregion and its surroundings, because the alternative is horrific,\u201d he\nsaid. \u201cThe level of anxiety around this region is extraordinary, and\nDonald Trump is the only one who can calm it down, because he is the one\nwho first lit the fire,\u201d he explained. However, in Tehran, public\nresponses tend to be sceptical. Some parties question whether the\nsuspension means a complete halt to the conflict or just a delay of\nspecific attacks. \u201cIt\u2019s unclear, at least to me, whether he is\nsuspending everything that has happened since the start of the war or\nextending the deadline for total destruction of power plants,\u201d said Al\nJazeera correspondent Mohamed Vall. The conflict between the US-Israel\nalliance and Iran has lasted more than five weeks since the joint\nmilitary attacks began on 28 February. Washington and Tel Aviv stated\nthat the operation aims to eliminate the Iranian threat and prevent the\ndevelopment of nuclear weapons. However, several international law\nexperts consider the action an unprovoked attack that violates\ninternational law. Since the conflict broke out, the death toll has\ncontinued to rise. Nearly 2,076 people have been killed in Iran, while\n28 have died in Gulf countries. On the other side, the United States has\nlost 13 military personnel, and 26 deaths have been reported in\nIsrael.<\/p>",
