Iran Pushes To Include Lebanon In Any Ceasefire Deal With US And Israel
Iran is seeking to include Lebanon in any ceasefire agreement with the US and Israel, linking an end to the war to a halt in Israeli attacks on Hezbollah. The move comes as Lebanon's domestic politics are sensitive, with Hezbollah's influence declining after heavy losses in the 2024 war.
Iran wants any ceasefire deal with the US and Israel to also cover Lebanon. This means an end to Israeli attacks on Hezbollah. Iran informed mediators of this position in mid-March. Hezbollah, established by Iran's Revolutionary Guards, entered the conflict on March 2. Israel responded with air and ground campaigns in Lebanon. Over 1,000 people have been killed and a million displaced since March 2. Iran is reviewing a US proposal to end the conflict.
