Qatar's prime minister said on 7 November that mediation between the United States and Iran was continuing in an effort to prevent further regional escalation, according to Reuters. The Associated Press reported a day earlier that Qatari proposals addressing Iran's nuclear programme were under review, while the sides remained divided on conditions for ending the conflict. These accounts confirm that diplomatic contacts and proposals are active; they do not establish that either government has accepted a ceasefire or agreed to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
