Ceasefire agreement between the U.S. and Iran ends Wednesday

NPR | By Kat Lonsdorf,

Published April 21, 2026 at 6:43 AM EDT

The ceasefire agreement between the U.S. and Iran ends Wednesday. President Trump says a U.S. delegation is going to Pakistan for talks, but Iran hasn't confirmed their attendance.

Corrected: April 21, 2026 at 8:45 AM EDT

A previous headline and web introduction of this report incorrectly said that the ceasefire ends on Tuesday. It ends on Wednesday.
