The final draft of a potential US-Iran agreement, being mediated by Pakistan, could be announced within the next few hours, sources told Al Arabiya on Friday.
According to the report, the proposed agreement includes an immediate, comprehensive and unconditional ceasefire across all fronts, including land, sea and air operations.
The draft also outlines a mutual pledge by both sides not to target military, civilian or economic infrastructure, along with a complete halt to military operations and media hostilities.
The agreement reportedly includes commitments to respect sovereignty, territorial integrity and non-interference in each other’s internal affairs.
It also guarantees freedom of navigation in the Arabian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz and the Gulf of Oman.
A joint mechanism would be created to monitor implementation of the agreement and resolve disputes, while negotiations on unresolved matters would begin within seven days.

The draft further proposes a gradual lifting of US sanctions in return for Iran’s compliance with the terms of the agreement.
According to the reported details, the agreement also reaffirms adherence to international law and the United Nations Charter and would come into effect immediately after official announcements by both countries.
Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Thursday there had been “some good signs” in the negotiations, though he cautioned against optimism.
Rubio stressed that a diplomatic solution would not be possible if Iran imposed tolls in the Strait of Hormuz, which Tehran largely closed to shipping after the war began on February 28.

“There’s some good signs,” Rubio said. “I don’t want to be overly optimistic ... So, let’s see what happens over the next few days.”
A senior Iranian source also told Reuters that differences between the two sides had narrowed, although uranium enrichment and the Strait of Hormuz remain key unresolved issues.

Naqvi has been in Tehran for several days as Pakistan tries to pave the way for a possible US-Iran agreement.
