Report: Iran demands Hezbollah inclusion in any ceasefire deal


Iran has told intermediaries that Lebanon must be included in any ceasefire agreement with the United States and Israel, six regional sources familiar with Iran's position said on Wednesday, according to Reuters, linking an end of the war to a halt to Israel's strikes on Hezbollah. The six regional sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter, said Tehran had informed mediators as early as mid-March that it sought a deal that would also stop Israel's strikes on the Hezbollah terrorist organization in Lebanon. A Hezbollah official had previously stated that the terrorist organization will not intervene if the United States carries out "limited" strikes on Iran, but warned the group would intervene if Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who was eliminated in the first round of the strikes, were to be targeted.
