“A new round of talks between Iranian and US delegations may take place in Islamabad on April 26, the Al Hadath television channel reported.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim attributes the report of talks on April 26th specifically to 'Al Hadath television channel.' While multiple web results discuss US-Iran talks in Islamabad, the specific date (April 26) and the sole attribution to 'Al Hadath' cannot be corroborated by multiple independent sources or confirmed by Wikipedia. The web results mention Al-Hadath reporting on the schedule, but this remains a single-source report for the specific date.
