Tensions escalated after Iran sent more than 300 drones and missiles to Israel on April 13, raising fears that the war between Israel and Hamas could escalate into a regional war in the Middle East.
 Iranian state media IRNA reported that the US and Iran held indirect talks in Oman, which are “an ongoing process”.

The Iranian mission to the UN in New York confirmed that the two sides were in contact to prevent an escalation of the conflict.

Iran's official statement coincides with information produced yesterday by the American media Axios, which quoted unnamed American sources as saying that senior American officials were in Oman this week for talks with Iranian officials.
