Pak Army Chief Asim Munir Used a Private Oil Deal in Iran to Shield Saudi From Attacks: Report
The reported arrangement gave Munir financial leverage over an Iranian commander as Saudi Arabia faced repeated missile attacks, officials said.
- Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir mediated a secret ceasefire in late March 2026 between Iran and Saudi Arabia, leading to a halt in Iranian missile attacks on Saudi Arabia for over three months during the US-Israel-Iran conflict.
- Munir used a joint oil transport venture with Iranian IRGC commander Ahmad Vahidi, which transported Iranian oil to Pakistan, as leverage to negotiate the suspension of Iranian strikes on Saudi Arabia.
- Following the ceasefire, Iranian missile attacks on Saudi Arabia stopped until a recent missile strike, after which further attacks ceased following Munir's warning that they could jeopardize their oil business.
- The agreement enhanced Pakistan's strategic relationship with Saudi Arabia by positioning Pakistan as a key regional mediator, though some officials criticized it for effectively legitimizing ransom payments by Iran to avoid military attacks.
