Part of Iran / Israel / U.S. / Lebanon / Energy crisis watch

Event details

Guardian/Reuters reported that Abbas Araghchi told Iranian media the agreement announcement would cover an end to war on all fronts, including Lebanon, and that for Lebanon this means Israeli withdrawal from occupied areas. AP and Axios kept final signoff, Hormuz execution, sanctions relief and enriched-material handling unresolved.

Context

Lebanon is now an explicit implementation test, not just background pressure: if Israel keeps its occupied zones or strike carveout, Tehran and Hezbollah can argue the deal is incomplete before Hormuz, funds and sanctions steps settle.
