Iran will support any decision taken by the Lebanese government and Hezbollah on a ceasefire with Israel, Ali Larijani, senior advisor to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, said on November 15.
“We are not looking to sabotage anything. We are after a solution to the problems,” Larijani said after meeting Lebanese caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati and parliament speaker Nabih Berri, according to Reuters.
Referring to Hezbollah, Larijani stressed that Iran will continue to support the “resistance” in Lebanon under all circumstances.
A day earlier, Reuters reported that the United States ambassador to Lebanon had submitted a draft for a proposed ceasefire in Lebanon to Berri.
Ambassador Lisa Johnson met with Berri, a close ally of Hezbollah, on November 14 to submit Washington’s first written proposal in at least several weeks, two senior Lebanese political sources told the news agency.
“It is a draft to get observations from the Lebanese side,” one of the sources told Reuters. Neither source could provide details on the contents of the proposal.
A separate report by The Wall Street Journal released on the same day said that the U.S. President-elect Donald Trump signed off on the proposal on November 10 during a meeting with Israel’s Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer at Mar-a-Lago.
Trump green-lit the proposal following a briefing from Dermer, and expressed hope that it would be implemented before he takes office on January 20, according to the report.
The confrontation between Israel and Hezbollah first broke out after the start of the war in the Gaza Strip, with the group launching attacks in support of the Palestinian enclave.
Israel escalated its attacks on Lebanon starting from September 17 and on September 27 it assassinated the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Hassan Nassrallah. On September 30, Israel complexacted the situation even more by launching a ground operation in southern Lebanon.
So far, the confrontation has claimed the lives of more than 110 people in Israel and left well over 3,300 dead on the Lebanese side.

are you affraid? of course you are!
sorry but he not the one crying human kind is stake, you are the one who sound more afraid than anything stop projecting your faults on to others.
as for me i am afraid nuclear war between russia and nato
the prick, annon is affraid as fuck.
how so exactly? he is stating that humanity is not at stake and things in israel palestine lebanon don’t effect central africa or south america
where as nuclear warbetween russia and nato clearly would
you’re fighting over very basic logic because they disagree with you.
the basic logic here is this: the chosenites are cancer of the world, whether it is central africa or south america, europe or asia. that is basic logics, you hypocrite.
ok how am i hypocrite then
christains say are chosen too so does muslims hindus also
if you want to by most harm done over the years christian & muslims have caused more harm both used forced conversion from jiza tax paid by non-muslims to crusade to force conversion
there as anyways been war in that region of world.
smh, i’m disappointed to say the least, what the hell is iran thinking.
how would we know any of these statement(s) aren’t pure fabrication as everything that comes out of the zioni$t propaganda machine is always less than 4/5 truth… than again ‘sno_wing-den’ 1 and 2 say it correctly. the vast majority of lebanese are with hezbollah but have insufficient support from the likes of russia, china and india to help iran defend the neighborhood properly.
… and the first 3 continue to wear chains to the un/unsc/imf/world banking cartel that they refuse to leave which is their worst handicap and “why” the briics continue to be a sick joke!… all 3 of them look in the mirror not seeing themselves as the western face of globalism that they are and will continue to be unless they leave those institutions and declare that the rule of law and banks must be rebuilt under a new charter in the east.
well bonaoarte did that overthrew the pope as rule of law and stripped the vatican of its legal powers ,that it gave itself as romes heir , but look how that turned out.his doctors f ed his digestion totally giving him massive piles so painful that he couldn’t sit on his horse at waterloo .then they poisoned him to death when he started writing his story imo . meanwhile fascist mussolini restored the pope and vatican .
dumb and dumber.
disappointed ars you hitler’s youth? hoping for genocide were you sweet heart ?
germany on the side with of russia and the outcome 85 years later would have been completely different?… couldn’t agree with you more!
and after victoria nudleman aka pnac princess with the maidan event in 2014 and the reanimation of stepan bandera and the trident carrying “class” in western ukraine… we know the truth about the holohoax all these years later -don’t we?…
the back room boys brigade will imo ,just fund another oct 7th .sooner or later .from.behind their veils of secrecy .
iran’s lack of any progressive political programme once again rewards zionist violence. leaving israel to complete the ethnic cleansing of northern gaza, then to more carefully plan a resumption of hostilities against neighbours when this reward has allowed it to rebuild its strength.
‘us ambassador. . . . submitted a draft . . . . ceasefire . . . . . . ‘nasrallah did the decent response under pressure, so did solemeini with a red cross brokered parley with the saudis. look where it got them ! assad’s damascus being hit hard with their supposed benefactor seemingly riding it out, but oh so ever diplomatic at the un 💩. i think the iranians are just making a noise here, for “diplomacy” 🖕
