Sources: No discussions on the extension of the ceasefire are ongoing

On 12 August, according to Reuters, a senior Iranian source stated: “There is currently no discussion between Iran and the United States on an extension of the ceasefire, which, from the Iranian side, does not have an effective date and is therefore not necessary to be renewed. The United States violated the interim agreement 48 hours after it had been reached and withdrew from it a few days later. One of the issues currently under discussion is the return of the United States to the memorandum of understanding and the establishment of a time frame for the United States to fulfil its relevant commitments, but no progress has been made on this issue at this time.” Kim Xian
