Pakistan's army chief lands in Iran




Pakistan's army chief Asim Munir has landed in Tehran, where he was welcomed by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.

The Pakistani military confirmed the arrival of Munir, who mediated the last round of talks between the US and Iran in Islamabad.

Those talks ended on Sunday. Pakistan's military said Munir and his delegation were in Iran "to narrow gaps" between the two sides. They flew to Tehran with military aircraft to protect them.
