Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says the end of war between Iran and the United States, as discussed in a reported deal, also includes an end to Israel’s occupation of Lebanon. Multiple outlets report that Araghchi made the remarks during a briefing to foreign diplomats, as quoted by Iranian state television. The broadcasts reportedly did not show the full remarks on video; instead, the comments appeared in on-screen graphics and, in some accounts, were referenced without being aired directly. Araghchi links the issue to the memorandum of understanding between Washington and Tehran, saying that Israel’s continued occupation of southern Lebanon would violate that agreement. The outlets also note uncertainty around the substance of the interim arrangement, which has not yet been fully released publicly. Because key details remain undisclosed, it is unclear how the Lebanon-related requirement would be implemented or whether differing interpretations of the agreement’s terms could affect timelines for any broader de-escalation.
