According to a New York Times report on Iran diplomacy, a rare joint visit to Tehran is expected by Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan. The same report describes reports that the United States and Israel are drawing up plans to renew their war on Iran. The outlet's headline characterizes the period as a flurry of diplomacy, placing the expected visit alongside those reported military plans.

The New York Times attributed the report to Erika Solomon, Vivian Nereim and Adam Rasgon. According to the summary, the visit is expected rather than completed, and the summary identifies Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan as the countries expected to take part. The summary describes the visit as a "rare joint visit," and it does not give a date or describe the agenda of the meeting.

The reports about renewed military action are described in the summary only as reports. The New York Times summary does not say who issued them, whether the United States or Israel has confirmed them, or what form renewed action would take. Those details are not contained in the headline or summary on which this account is based.

The summary uses the word renew when describing the planned action against Iran, but it does not explain the earlier conflict to which the word refers. It also does not state whether the expected visit and the reported planning are connected, leaving that relationship unclear in the material available for this story.

This account is limited to the headline and summary of the New York Times report, which was written by three bylined reporters. Where the summary is silent, this story does not supply further detail.
