Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared yesterday’s attacks in Lebanon as “the biggest blow” to Hezbollah since the start of the ongoing conflict. He affirmed Israel’s commitment to continuing its operations against Iran, stating that such action remains “necessary.”
In response, Iran issued a threat to launch a “response that would cause regret” if the attacks in Lebanon were not halted immediately. Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, a member of Iran’s Presidential Council, communicated this stance via the X network, asserting that three key points within Iran’s proposed peace plan had been “openly and clearly violated.”
Ghalibaf contends that the agreement on a temporary ceasefire also encompassed Lebanon, despite claims made by the White House and Israel that Lebanon was excluded from the deal.
He further raised concerns regarding an Israeli drone reportedly entering Iran’s southern province of Fars, a claim the Israeli army has refuted. The escalating tensions underscore the complex and contested nature of the current situation.
