US, Iran and mediators make push for 45-day ceasefire: Axios

The U.S., Iran and a group of regional mediators are discussing the terms for a potential 45-day ceasefire that could lead to a permanent end to the war, Axios reported on Sunday, citing four U.S., Israeli and regional sources with knowledge ⁠of the talks.

Reuters could not immediately verify the report. The White House and the U.S. State Department did not immediately respond to Reuters' requests for comment.

The mediators are discussing the terms of a two-phased deal, the report said, adding that the first phase would be a potential ⁠45-day ceasefire during which a permanent end to the war would be negotiated.

The second phase would be an agreement on ending the war, the ⁠report said.

The ceasefire could be extended if additional time was required for talks, the report said.
