U.S. Official: IDF Withdrawal from Lebanon Not Part of Iran Deal
(Times of Israel) Jacob Magid - On Monday, a U.S. official told reporters that the Iran deal was not conditioned on Israel withdrawing from Lebanese territory, but nevertheless envisioned a ceasefire that covers both Iran and Lebanon. "The deal is a ceasefire, but it will not be a one-way ceasefire. If Iran is not able to control Hizbullah, and if they attack Israeli positions or Israeli towns, Israel will have the right to defend themselves and respond," the official said.
