“Iran’s Ambassador to Pakistan, Reza Amiri Moghadam, said on Sunday (May 24, 2026) that a “positive stride” was taking place, apparently towards a peace deal between his country and the U.S., following the latest mediatory efforts by Pakistan.”
CORROBORATED
Multiple independent sources confirm the context. A web search result explicitly mentions Iran, the US, and mediator Pakistan stating progress was made in talks to end the war. Another web result identifies Ambassador Reza Amiri Moghadam discussing ceasefire efforts. Wikipedia confirms a '2026 Iran war ceasefire' mediated by Pakistan, aligning with the date and context of the claim.

“The statement came after the Pakistan Army announced that the Army Chief successfully completed his visit to Iran, which aimed at bringing an end to the conflict.”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
While the general context of a 2026 conflict and Pakistani mediation is verified by Wikipedia and web search, the specific evidence provided does not contain a report or announcement from the Pakistan Army regarding the Army Chief's visit to Iran for this purpose. The provided Wikipedia entries for the COAS are general descriptions of the office, not news reports of a specific visit.
