In a diplomatic effort to address the ongoing conflict in West Asia, Pakistan's Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar engaged in talks with Saudi Arabia's Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud. The discussion revolved around a five-point peace plan co-developed by Islamabad and Beijing.

The proposal, which emerged after discussions in Beijing, advocates for an immediate ceasefire, initiation of peace talks, and emphasis on non-military safety. It aims to uphold the UN Charter's principles, calling for regional dialogue and de-escalation.
