Iran’s foreign minister has held talks with top Pakistani officials to try and mediate in the escalation between Islamabad and New Delhi after last month’s deadly attack on tourists in the Indian-controlled part of Kashmir.

Iran's foreign minister arrived in the Pakistani capital on Monday for a one-day visit to meet top leaders, officials said, amid rising tension with neighbouring India following an attack on tourists last month in disputed Kashmir.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi's recent diplomatic efforts in Islamabad, including meetings with Pakistani leaders, centered on mediating the escalating tensions between India and Pakistan following the Pahalgam terrorist attack.
