Switzerland, which represents US interests in Iran, reports that diplomatic communications have become 'extremely difficult.' Oman, which has historically mediated between Iran and the US, fails to arrange backchannel talks. The EU's envoy to Tehran is recalled after Iran revokes their diplomatic privileges. Analysts warn that the closure of diplomatic channels significantly increases the risk of miscalculation.
