Iran’s Supreme National Security Council said on Wednesday it had achieved a “massive victory” and forced the United States to accept a 10-point Iranian proposal for a ceasefire, while confirming that a framework for ending the war had been reached and would be discussed further during a two-week truce.
The council said the deal includes full compensation to Iran, the withdrawal of US forces from all bases across the Middle East, and an end to the war against all groups within the so-called “Axis of Resistance.”
It also covers regulating passage through the Strait of Hormuz in coordination with Iranian forces, lifting all sanctions, and releasing frozen Iranian assets held abroad.

The council said talks are scheduled to take place in Islamabad next Friday to finalise the details of ending the war.
Earlier on Tuesday evening, US President Donald Trump said he had agreed to suspend bombing and attacks on Iran for two weeks following talks with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Pakistan’s Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir.
According to Trump, the two officials had urged halting “the use of destructive force” against Iran that night, on the condition that Tehran agrees to “the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz.”
