The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran, while recalling the ceasefire agreement of 8 April 2026, under which the U.S.- and Israeli-imposed war against the Islamic Republic of Iran was halted on all fronts, including Lebanon, notes that since the announcement of the ceasefire, the United States has repeatedly committed blatant violations of the agreement, including its continued attacks against Iranian commercial shipping. At the same time, the Israeli regime has flagrantly violated the ceasefire by infringing upon Lebanon’s territorial integrity and national sovereignty, resulting in the martyrdom and injury of several thousand Lebanese citizens, the displacement of two million people, and the destruction of the country’s infrastructure and residential homes. A violation of the ceasefire on any front constitutes a violation of the ceasefire on all fronts. Despite the United States’ stated efforts in the days immediately following the ceasefire to compel the Israeli regime to halt its aggression against Lebanon, the direct responsibility of the United States—both for its own violations of the ceasefire against Iran and for the Israeli regime’s violations of the ceasefire against Lebanon—is undeniable. The United States bears responsibility for the consequences and repercussions arising from this situation. The Islamic Republic of Iran has repeatedly warned of the dangerous consequences of ceasefire violations for regional peace and security and has called for an end to these acts of aggression and crimes. It is self-evident that the Islamic Republic of Iran will, with full determination and by utilizing all available capacities, defend its interests wherever it deems necessary, based on its inherent right of self-defense under international law.
