Doha rounds stall as US-Iran indirect talks yield no breakthrough

In Doha, the United States and Iran held indirect talks mediated by Qatar and Pakistan, but there was no evident breakthrough toward a lasting agreement. The discussions reportedly focused on issues already resolved and on establishing a communication channel, including the handling of about $6 billion in frozen Iranian funds. Iran’s top negotiators did not attend, and while topics included the Strait of Hormuz and Iran’s nuclear program, officials said positive progress was made and a follow-up meeting will be scheduled after funeral processions for former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Shipping through Hormuz has shown renewed activity amid broader regional tensions.

Qatar's Diplomatic Dilemma: Expelling Hamas Amidst Gaza Ceasefire Talks

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken urged Qatar to convey a warning to Hamas, threatening expulsion from Doha if they did not deliver on a hostage and ceasefire deal to halt the war in Gaza, as negotiations between Hamas and Israel stalled.
