Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian is set to commence a regional tour in the aftermath of the announced four-day truce between Israel and Hamas.

As reported by the Nournews agency affiliated with Iran's top security body on Wednesday, the purpose of the visit is aligned with Iran's endeavors to halt Israel's retaliatory attacks on Gaza, lift the blockade, and provide humanitarian aid to Gaza.

The temporary cessation of hostilities between Israel and Hamas aims to facilitate the release of 50 of the 240 hostages being held in Gaza, in exchange for 150 Palestinians imprisoned in Israel, along with the entry of humanitarian aid into the besieged enclave.

Lebanese media outlets have indicated that Amir-Abdollahian is anticipated to engage in discussions with key Lebanese figures, including Nabih Berri, the Speaker of Parliament, Najib Mikati, the Prime Minister, Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, and several other Lebanese and Palestinian political leaders.

In an interview with Iran International, Lebanese journalist Tony Boulos suggested that Amir-Abdollahian's swift return follows the developments in the negotiations for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. According to Boulos, the Iranian Foreign Minister's visit to Lebanon aims to align directives with recent developments, particularly considering his consistent representation of Lebanon in diplomatic matters.

Amidst ongoing questions about the fate of the Lebanese front, there is speculation about whether the southern part of the country will also experience a ceasefire or if operations and engagements will persist.

Iranian officials have consistently denied involvement in the terror attack by its Palestinian proxy, despite government praise for the Hamas invasion on October 7 and immediate orders for street celebrations, with large banners erected within hours.
