In an official statement, the Foreign Office said the report by CBS News appeared aimed at undermining ongoing regional peace and stability efforts.
The statement explained that following the ceasefire and during the initial phase of the Islamabad Talks, several aircraft from Iran and the United States arrived in Pakistan to facilitate the movement of diplomatic personnel, security teams and administrative staff connected to the negotiations process.
According to the Foreign Office, some aircraft and support staff remained temporarily in Pakistan after the first round of talks in anticipation of future diplomatic engagements.
It added that although formal negotiations have not resumed, high-level diplomatic contacts have continued, including visits to Islamabad by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, which were facilitated through existing logistical arrangements.
The Foreign Office stressed that the Iranian aircraft currently in Pakistan had arrived during the ceasefire period and had “no linkage whatsoever to any military contingency or preservation arrangement”.
“Assertions suggesting otherwise are speculative, misleading, and entirely detached from the factual context,” the statement said.
Pakistan reiterated that it has consistently acted as an impartial and responsible facilitator supporting dialogue and de-escalation efforts in the region.
The statement added that Pakistan remains committed to promoting diplomacy, reducing tensions, and supporting regional and global peace, stability and security.
