Iran’s parliament speaker has warned that continued Israeli attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon would bring “explicit costs and STRONG responses.”
Like other Iranian officials, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf insisted that the two-week ceasefire extended to Lebanon, something denied by both Israel and the US.
“Ceasefire violations carry explicit and STRONG responses,” he wrote on X. “Extinguish the fire immediately.”
Ghalibaf has been discussed as a possible negotiator who could meet US Vice President JD Vance this weekend for talks in Pakistan’s capital, Islamabad.
Iran’s deputy foreign minister Saeed Khatibzadeh told the BBC the strikes were a “grave violation” of the ceasefire deal.
