A temporary hiatus to hostilities between the U.S. and Iran appeared to hold on Monday, after negotiations over a lasting peace faced fresh hurdles over the weekend. The U.S. military brought a halt to two weeks of strikes on Friday as diplomats sought to give peace talks “some space.” Iran, which has also refrained from military operations against regional targets in recent days, has said it will reciprocate following a China-led push to resume stalled diplomatic efforts in Pakistan. However, other actors did undertake military action related to the conflict over the weekend, highlighting the risk of further escalation and the complex challenges facing negotiators. The Saudi military conducted strikes on Iran-backed Houthi targets in Yemen following the rebel group’s attacks on Red Sea shipping in recent days. tand
