Iran says its response to US proposals on ending war will go through mediators
Tehran says it will deliver its response to US proposals aimed at ending the conflict via intermediaries, as it also confirms an agreement with Oman on Strait of Hormuz transit routes.

Iran has said its response to proposals put forward by the United States aimed at ending the ongoing war will be delivered through mediators rather than through direct communication. The announcement reflects Tehran's continued preference for indirect channels in handling sensitive diplomatic exchanges with Washington.
Alongside this statement, Iran also said it has reached agreement with Oman on the geographical coordinates of safe inbound and outbound routes through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway for global shipping and energy transport.
Indirect diplomacy continues
The use of mediators to relay Iran's response underscores the lack of direct diplomatic engagement between Tehran and Washington on this matter, a pattern that has characterized much of the two countries' recent interactions. Relying on intermediaries can slow the pace of negotiations but has often been the primary avenue available given the state of US-Iran relations.
The specific identity of the mediators involved, along with the contents of the US proposals Iran is responding to, were not detailed beyond the announcement that a response is being prepared.
The Strait of Hormuz agreement with Oman, mentioned alongside the mediation statement, points to continued technical cooperation between Tehran and Muscat even as broader diplomatic questions involving the United States remain unresolved.
