Iran could withdraw from its ceasefire agreement with the United States if Israel continues military strikes in Lebanon, according to a report citing a source familiar with the matter.

An informed source told Iran’s semi-official Tasnim News Agency that Tehran is reviewing the situation amid what it described as continued violations of the truce by Israel. The source said Iran would reconsider its commitment if attacks on Lebanon persist.

The development comes as Iran maintains that the ceasefire understanding included a halt to fighting across all fronts, including against Lebanon’s “Islamic resistance." However, Israel has continued operations, which Tehran has termed clear breaches of the agreement.

Israeli forces said they carried out strikes on more than 100 sites within 10 minutes across Beirut, the Beqaa Valley and southern Lebanon, describing it as the largest coordinated assault since the current offensive began.

Israel has continued air and ground operations in southern Lebanon following a cross-border attack by Hezbollah on March 2, despite an earlier ceasefire in place since November 2024.

Lebanese authorities reported that Israeli strikes have killed at least 1,530 people and injured 4,812 so far, underscoring the scale of the ongoing conflict.
