After the planned negotiations were abruptly canceled on Friday, the parties appear to be making a new attempt on Sunday. An Iranian delegation has recently arrived in Switzerland, and US Vice President JD Vance was on his way to Switzerland overnight.
Diplomatic sources told CBS that the conflict between Israel and the Iran-backed Shia militia Hezbollah has been placed first on the agenda.
Israel has been targeting Hezbollah positions in Lebanon for months. The militia is supported by Iran, which has demanded an end to the attacks.
Iran announced on Saturday that the Strait of Hormuz had been closed again in response to the Israeli attacks.
Later that day, Lebanon's Health Ministry announced that seven people had been killed in Israeli airstrikes.
Neither Lebanon, Israel nor Hezbollah are participating in the talks, which the mediating country, Pakistan, has said will begin on Sunday.
