Without providing any details, Iran's ISNA news agency said Munir's visit was aimed at "talks and consultations" with Iranian authorities.
The visit by Pakistan's army chief comes a day after Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi met Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Wednesday (May 20).

Meanwhile Trump on Wednesday (May 20) warned that ceasefire agreement that is in effect since April 8 could end soon as diplomacy has failed to yield any results so far.

Soon after the statement by Trump, Tehran's chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf accused Washington of threatening to start the war.
