Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has strongly condemned Israel’s recent military actions in Lebanon, calling them a violation of an existing ceasefire agreement.
In a post on social media, Pezeshkian
said, “Israel’s renewed incursion into Lebanon is a blatant violation of the initial ceasefire agreement. This is a dangerous sign of deception and lack of commitment to potential agreements.” He warned that continued military actions would undermine diplomatic efforts, adding, “The continuation of these actions will render negotiations meaningless.”
The Iranian president also issued a strong warning of support for Lebanon, stating, “Our fingers remain on the trigger. Iran will never abandon its Lebanese sisters and brothers.”
تجاوز دوباره رژیم صهیونیستی به لبنان نقض آشکار توافق اولیه آتشبس است. این نشانه خطرناکی از فریب و عدم پایبندی به توافقات احتمالی است. تداوم این اقدامات، مذاکره را بیمعنا خواهد کرد. دستهای ما بر ماشه باقی است. ایران هرگز خواهران و برادران لبنانی را تنها نخواهد گذاشت. https://t.co/T3Wy3qBqcE
