Iran Says Israel Must Withdraw from South Lebanon to Avoid Retaliation
Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Political Affairs Majid Takht-Ravanchi said one of Tehran’s conditions for refraining from retaliation against Israel over the strike in Beirut’s Dahieh district is an Israel Defense Forces withdrawal from southern Lebanon.
The statement was presented as part of Iran’s position on whether it would respond to the attack in the Beirut suburb. Takht-Ravanchi did not give additional details in the brief report, but tied the issue directly to Israel’s military presence in southern Lebanon.
The comment adds to the tension surrounding the Dahieh strike and suggests that Iran is linking any decision not to retaliate with a broader regional demand involving the Israeli army’s pullout from Lebanon.
