US President Donald Trump warns Iran it will face US strikes unless it stops Hezbollah from “causing trouble,” as fighting continues between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. The threat comes as senior US and Iranian officials begin peace talks in Switzerland, following a memorandum of understanding signed last Wednesday that calls for a cessation of hostilities on all fronts, including Lebanon. The articles report that Israel’s air and ground strikes in Lebanon continue amid the ongoing exchanges, with Israeli forces saying they are responding to projectiles fired by Hezbollah at its troops. Hezbollah is described in the reports as Iran-backed. While the memorandum sets out a framework for ending fighting, the renewed or continued attacks on the ground raise questions about how quickly hostilities can be halted. The reports consistently link Trump’s statement to the Lebanon situation and to Iranian support for Hezbollah, framing the talks as a diplomatic effort underway alongside the military conflict.
