Iran's Araghchi says truce deal with US must include 'ceasefire on all fronts'

Iran's foreign minister demanded that a truce deal between the Washington and Tehran must be "unequivocally a ceasefire on all fronts", including in Lebanon.

In a post on X, Abbas Araghchi said that a "violation on one front is a violation of the ceasefire on all fronts".

"The US and Israel are responsible for the consequences of any violation," he added.

Israel has recently deepened its offensive in Lebanon despite violating a ceasefire in April, mounting civilian casualties, widespread destruction and growing international calls for a peace deal.
