Pakistan, a key mediator, says the agreement will end "military operations on all fronts" and be signed on Friday in Switzerland.

  • Pakistan’s Prime Minister says a peace deal has been reached between the US and Iran

  • “Both sides have declared the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon”, Shehbaz Sharif says

  • Donald Trump says: “The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all!”

  • Iran is yet to comment; details of what the deal does and doesn’t cover are still emerging

  • The war began on 28 February, with US and Israeli strikes across Iran. It prompted Iran to attack Israel and US-allied states in the Gulf and effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz, a key oil and gas shipping route
