Iranian media reported that a delegation from Qatar has arrived in Tehran to discuss bilateral relations and regional developments. It was stated that the delegation's meetings will also cover the latest status of the diplomatic process between Iran and the United States.
The visit coincides with a period of renewed mutual attacks between Iran and the US. According to the report, the parties exchanged fire once again the previous night.
It is alleged that after the US accused Iran of shooting down one of its Apache helicopters over the Strait of Hormuz, it struck several targets within Iran. In response, Iran targeted US bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Jordan with missiles and drones.
US President Donald Trump recently stated that Iran has delayed too long in reaching an agreement and must pay the price for it.
Pakistan is officially mediating the talks between Iran and the US. However, Qatar and some other countries in the region are also trying to contribute to creating a ground for reconciliation between the two sides.
