Pakistan, Egypt, Turkey Push for Islamabad Peace Summit

Pakistan, Egypt, and Turkey stepped up diplomatic efforts to host a ceasefire summit in Islamabad, with Pakistani PM Sharif declaring the capital 'stands ready' to host negotiations. Turkey's AKP confirmed it is 'passing messages' between Tehran and Washington. Egypt's FM proposed a UN-backed multilateral framework. Neither Iran nor the US formally agreed to participate. Iran's formal diplomatic position remains that it will not negotiate while US-Israeli strikes continue, though back-channel message exchanges through all three countries are acknowledged by both sides.
