Khamenei makes Lebanon truce a condition of US deal
Iran's supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei said on Sunday that any agreement ending the US-Iran conflict requires Israel to fully end attacks on Lebanon and respect Lebanese territorial integrity. He posted the condition on X as Washington paused airstrikes for a second night during renewed diplomacy. Tehran put the same demand first in a June memorandum that later collapsed over Strait of Hormuz disputes.
