Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Tuesday that any Israeli military action or continued occupation in Lebanon would constitute a breach of the ceasefire agreement with the United States, according to a report by Yediot Aharonot. This repeats the warning he issued minutes earlier in an earlier statement, now framed as a direct addition to his remarks.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi added a fresh statement Tuesday reiterating that any Israeli military strike or continued occupation of Lebanese territory would violate the ceasefire framework with the United States. The remark, reported by Yediot Aharonot, follows by minutes his earlier warning carried by N12 at 10:29. The repetition suggests Tehran is pressing the message that the emerging US-Iran memorandum — which Iran claims covers regional fronts beyond the nuclear issue — must include guarantees regarding southern Lebanon. As The Zioneer reported earlier Tuesday, Araghchi's initial statement already warned that Israeli action would breach the deal. This second explicit amplification underscores the centrality of the Lebanese front in Iran's red lines as the negotiation process continues. No direct Israeli response to this specific statement has been reported.
