Iran has warned that Israeli attacks against Hezbollah in Lebanon could threaten Tehran’s ceasefire with the US, after Israel’s prime minister ordered strikes on the southern suburbs of Beirut.
Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the agreement with the US was unequivocally a ceasefire on all fronts, including in Lebanon and that its violation on one front is a violation of the ceasefire on all fronts.
Earlier, Benjamin Netanyahu said ‘terror targets’ in Beirut’s Dahieh would be hit in response to rocket and drone attacks by Iran-backed Hezbollah.
In subsequent social media posts, Donald Trump insisted that talks with Iran were continuing at a rapid pace and said he had spoken to both Netanyahu and representatives from Hezbollah.
