I have a cross-chain related issue. A cross-chain transaction from sepolia to linea sepolia has been in a pending state. Is this transaction unable to be executed or is it for some other reason?

Hey @hedy welcome to the Linea community!

Do you have multiple pending transactions? Try cancelling your oldest pending one with a custom nonce, see here:
