Israel and Iran recently exchanged long-range missile strikes, marking a significant escalation since the ceasefire was established two months ago. Although both nations seem to have agreed to halt further attacks, the incident has raised concerns about a potential return to full-scale conflict in the region.
Efforts are now underway to restore efforts towards peace. Former President Trump, along with regional mediators, is actively working to negotiate an agreement to end hostilities with Iran.
