Iranian minister visits Pakistan amid US tensions

Iranian Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni arrived in Pakistan for talks with top leadership amid escalating US-Iran conflict.

Momeni was received by Pakistani counterpart Mohsin Naqvi, who said the Iranian minister brought 'good news' to strengthen bilateral ties.

Momeni is scheduled to meet Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Army chief Field Marshal Asim Munir during the visit.

The visit comes after days of military exchanges between the US and Iran, including US strikes on Iranian targets and Iranian retaliation.

Pakistan aims to mediate tensions, building on a memorandum of understanding it helped broker last month.
