On Monday, Iran's foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei accused the United States and Israel of violating ceasefire agreements, asserting that a halt to hostilities in Lebanon is crucial for any future negotiations with Washington. Baqaei highlighted that both nations are engaging in military actions that undermine ongoing diplomatic efforts. Tensions have escalated, particularly with Israel's intensified military operations in southern Lebanon, which have resulted in casualties, including the death of eight individuals in a recent strike. Additionally, an Israeli soldier was killed during combat operations. In response to Iranian drone attacks, the US executed strikes on Iranian radar and drone-control facilities, leading to further retaliatory actions from Tehran. Baqaei noted that discussions regarding Iran's nuclear program have stalled, with no substantive negotiations taking place, as Tehran prioritizes ending the conflict over nuclear matters. He criticized Washington for its shifting demands, which have complicated the negotiation process.
