India, Pakistan, Iran Hold Key Security Talks

India and Pakistan held routine DGMO-level talks to address border management and troop reductions following recent hostilities, with India warning that the ceasefire hinges on Pakistan's actions. At the same time, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, accompanied by Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir, visited Iran for high-level meetings with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and President Masoud Pezeshkian. Discussions focused on regional stability, military cooperation, and transforming the Iran-Pakistan border into an economic connectivity zone. Khamenei called for greater Muslim unity and urged joint efforts with Pakistan to counter Israeli actions in Gaza, commending Pakistan's support for Palestine. Sharif expressed readiness for peace talks with India on Kashmir and trade but warned of a strong response if provoked. These developments highlight ongoing regional tensions, diplomatic engagement, and efforts toward broader Muslim solidarity.
