Iran's Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni held talks in Pakistan on Tuesday as Islamabad intensified efforts to revive the collapsed interim agreement between Iran and the United States, while both sides continued exchanging attacks for a 10th consecutive day.

Momeni met Pakistan's army chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir, and was expected to hold talks with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. Pakistan has been urging Washington and Tehran to resume negotiations under the June memorandum of understanding, though no details of the closed-door meeting were released.

Iran attacks another tanker in Hormuz as US strikes continue for 10th night

Meanwhile, Iran attacked a tanker in the Strait of Hormuz, forcing its crew to abandon the vessel, while the US launched fresh airstrikes targeting Iranian military command centres, missile and drone sites, maritime capabilities and air defence systems.

Despite 10 days of US strikes, Tehran has maintained its grip on the strategic waterway, where shipping has nearly halted after the collapse of last month's interim deal. Iran's Revolutionary Guard claimed responsibility for attacks on three ships over two days.

The US warned Americans worldwide of possible Iranian-linked attacks, while President Donald Trump vowed retaliation for any American casualties. Iran also launched drones and missiles toward Jordan and Bahrain, though Jordan said all incoming threats were intercepted. Rising tensions have pushed Brent crude close to $90 a barrel and US gasoline prices to about $4 per gallon.
