Iran delegation suspends Switzerland trip over Lebanon attacks - Al Mayadeen

Iran’s negotiating delegation suspended its trip to Switzerland because of continuing Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon, Hezbollah-affiliated Al Mayadeen reported, citing an informed source.

The source said the delegation had been preparing to travel for the first round of talks under the 60-day negotiation process before deciding to suspend the trip.

Tehran had informed the American side and mediators that the Lebanon file was central to the negotiations and to whether they would continue or be suspended, the source said.

The source said Tehran had warned that continued Israeli operations and attacks 10 kilometers inside Lebanese territory constituted a flagrant violation of the first clause of the memorandum of understanding and framework agreement.
