US and Iranian officials held separate indirect talks with mediators to revive ceasefire efforts after seven months of conflict. Iran proposed a timeline for the US to release frozen funds, lift sanctions, and end a naval blockade, linking these to reopening the Strait of Hormuz. The US rejected the proposal but indicated ongoing discussions.
