Israel has violated the ceasefire in southern Lebanon 84 times over the past two days and continued to kill Lebanese civilians.

In response to the escalating violence, Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters issued a stern warning to Israel. The headquarters stated that Israel had violated the ceasefire in southern Lebanon 84 times over the past two days and continued to kill Lebanese civilians. They declared that if Israel does not halt its attacks, it "should expect a strong response from the powerful armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran."

Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi further emphasized the gravity of the situation, asserting that "any military attack by the Zionist regime and the continued occupation of Lebanese territory will, from now on, be considered a violation of the memorandum of understanding." He clarified that the agreement, finalized on June 15, involves the United States and Israel on one side, and Iran and Hezbollah on the other. Araghchi stressed that a lasting end to the war in Lebanon is intrinsically linked to a complete cessation of hostilities across the region.
