Supports. AP reports that high-level delegations from Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkey were in Tehran on October 26, 2026 for meetings with Iranian authorities to try to avert renewed fighting.[1]
Supports. Reuters reports that top officials from Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan met Iranian officials in Tehran on October 26 in a bid to de-escalate the Middle East conflict, with Saudi Defence Minister Khalid bin Salman, Pakistan's Field Marshal Asim Munir and Turkish intelligence chief Ibrahim Kalin attending.[2]
Supports. Al Manassa reports the officials were meeting in Tehran to discuss regional security and de-escalation, consistent with the AP and Reuters accounts.[3]
Context. The claimant's post names the same three countries' representatives and the regional security purpose, and the extraction faithfully matches it; the claim's omission of Iran and Tehran is a dropped detail, not a contradiction.
