Japan's Nikkei 225 index rose by 2 percent during the session. The rally was driven by a weaker yen and renewed investor confidence in export-oriented sectors.

While the Nikkei climbed sharply, other major Asian indices showed more cautious movement. Markets in South Korea, China, and Australia traded within a narrow range.

This trading pattern reflected uncertainty regarding the pace of diplomatic progress between Washington and Tehran.
