DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Iran’s top diplomat says that the end of the Iran war included the end of Israel’s occupation of Lebanon. Iranian state television aired the comments by Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi Tuesday to diplomats from other countries in a briefing. Araghchi says that Israel’s continued occupation of southern Lebanon would violate the memorandum of understanding reached between the United States and Iran. The United States has not said whether Lebanon was part of the final agreement. It remains unclear what is in the agreement as it has yet to be released publicly in full.
