Iranian Foreign Minister to Visit Pakistan Amid Recent Tensions

The visit follows retaliatory strikes between the two nations, with ambassadors set to return to their posts by January 26.

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian will visit Pakistan on January 29, following escalated tensions between the two nations due to retaliatory strikes.
The visit comes at the invitation of Pakistan Foreign Minister Jalil Abbas Jilani, as per a joint statement released by Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The two nations have agreed that their respective ambassadors will return to their posts by January 26.
Tensions escalated after Pakistan conducted targeted military strikes against terrorist hideouts in Iran's Siestan-o-Baluchistan, in response to Iran's missile and drone strikes in Pakistan.
Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the strikes were in response to the lack of action against Pakistani-origin terrorists operating from inside Iran.
