A draft proposal has been received by Iran and the US that calls for a 45-day ceasefire and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz as a way to end the war, AP reported.
The proposal was offered from Egyptian, Pakistani and Turkish mediators working to stop the fighting. Officials hope that the proposal would provide enough time to talk between the countries to reach a permanent ceasefire.
Both countries have not responded yet. It was sent on late Sunday night to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and US Mideast envoy Steve Witkoff, the officials said to AP.
It remains unclear whether the sides would agree to such terms.
