In an interview for Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi revealed that the Iranian delegation faced direct security threats while heading for negotiations with the United States in Islamabad, stating, “We received direct threats while en route to Islamabad that our plane might be attacked.”

According to Marandi, “Tehran had prior intelligence indicating that the negotiating delegation would be targeted while en route to Islamabad.”

He added that the delegation ultimately “returned from Islamabad via an alternative route after confirming that the delegation was under attack.”
