BBC News published an analysis this week examining potential paths to resolution in the ongoing conflict between the United States and Iran, following a fresh round of military strikes.

According to the report, the renewed strikes have intensified questions about whether either side has a clear strategy for ending hostilities. BBC News sought input from three experts to assess the prospects for de-escalation and the possible trajectories the conflict could take.

The report frames its central question around whether the United States and Iran can identify a route out of the current confrontation, or whether the exchange of strikes signals a more prolonged standoff.

Further details on the experts' specific assessments were included in the original BBC News report.
