US President Donald Trump is expected to host Pakistan’s army chief Asim Munir for talks at the White House later today, amid rising Israel-Iran tensions. Pakistan has condemned Israeli attacks on Iran, while expressing solidarity with its neighbour. Mr Munir’s high-profile trip comes a month after India and Pakistan agreed to a ceasefire, which the US has claimed credit for. Hira Mustafa reports from Islamabad.
