Lebanon tests the Iran-US ceasefire pact as Israel presses on
A U.S.-Iran MoU vows a permanent end to hostilities on all fronts, including Lebanon, but Israel continues bombing Lebanon and Hezbollah-linked tensions loom large. Lebanon’s government and Hezbollah are pushing for an Israeli withdrawal and a Lebanon-focused ceasefire, while analysts say including Lebanon in the accord could give Beirut leverage and stability, even as Israel appears intent on undermining the deal by sustaining the war. Iran’s internal divisions and the broader push for direct Iran-Israel negotiations complicate prospects, with a direct negotiation path and disarmament talks still uncertain amid ongoing fighting and geopolitical maneuvering.
