Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi is expected to arrive tonight with a small negotiating team, Dawn reported, citing sources.

Two sources, from the Pakistani government, said a US logistics and security team was already in place for potential talks.

The development comes hours after Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar and Araghchi, in a phone call, exchanged views on the US-Iran ceasefire and Pakistan's ongoing diplomatic efforts.

The first round of US-Iran talks held on April 11 and 12 failed to produce a breakthrough, prompting a flurry of diplomatic efforts by host Pakistan to cool tensions and revive hopes for another round of dialogue.

The war began on February 28 with the US-Israeli strikes against Iran.
