Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff and Chief of Defence Forces, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, held important meetings with Iran’s top civil and military leadership during his official visit to Tehran, according to reports released late Thursday.

During the visit, Field Marshal Asim Munir met Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, where both sides discussed regional security, ongoing tensions, and efforts to maintain peace. The meeting highlighted the growing diplomatic coordination between Pakistan and Iran at a critical time.

Field Marshal Munir also visited Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, where he was warmly received by Major General Ali Abdollahi. The visit to the military command center reflected strong defense-level engagement between the two countries.
