ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — A US government plane carrying top US officials landed in the Pakistani capital Islamabad on Saturday for peace talks with Iran, two Pakistani sources told Reuters.

Footage shows Air Force Two, carrying Vice President JD Vance, landing in Islamabad. US special envoy Steve Witkoff and US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, have also arrived, a Pakistani source tells Reuters.

Washington and Tehran are due to begin negotiations seeking to end the six-week-old Iran war that has killed thousands of people across the Middle East, disrupted energy supplies, fed inflation and slowed the global economy.
