Geneva: Hours of talks aimed at de-escalating fighting between Israel and Iran failed to produce a diplomatic breakthrough as the war entered its second week with a fresh round of strikes between the two adversaries. Story by Nicholas Rushworth.

According to France24.com, the negotiations in Geneva were closely watched by international observers who had hoped for a resolution to the escalating conflict. Despite the efforts, both parties remained entrenched in their positions, and no agreement was reached.

The ongoing conflict has resulted in significant casualties and widespread damage, prompting calls from global leaders for an immediate ceasefire. However, the lack of progress in the Geneva talks suggests that tensions are likely to continue in the foreseeable future.
