The commander of Iran's Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters on Monday issued a warning to inhabitants of northern areas and military settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories.

He stated that if Netanyahu carries out threats to strike Beirut and its southern suburbs, inhabitants of northern areas and military settlements should leave immediately if they wish to avoid harm.

“Given the repeated violations of the ceasefire by the Israeli regime, we warn residents of the northern regions and military settlements in the occupied territories that, should the threat to bombard Beirut and the southern suburbs be carried out, they must leave the area,” he said.

In a related development, the Intelligence Organization of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) stated that Tehran considers any crossing of red lines in Lebanon and Gaza to constitute a direct war and to impose costs on Iran’s national security and on the Resistance Axis.

The IRGC intelligence stressed that Iran has therefore resolved to take deterrent measures and open new fronts as part of its defensive operations, while also maintaining the Strait of Hormuz equation.

Earlier in the day, Iran’s Tasnim News Agency reported that, due to the continuation of Israeli crimes in Lebanon, and because Lebanon had been part of the preconditions for the ceasefire, the Iranian negotiating team would suspend talks and the exchange of draft texts with the United States through mediators.

Tasnim stated that Iranian officials and negotiators insist on the immediate cessation of the aggressive and brutal military operations by the enemy's army in both Gaza and Lebanon, as well as the complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from occupied areas in Lebanon.

The agency further reported that no talks would take place unless Iran’s position and that of the resistance movements on these issues were met.

Tasnim added that Iran and the Resistance Front had placed on their agenda the complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the activation of other fronts, including the Bab al-Mandab Strait, with the objective of punishing Israel and its supporters.

Meanwhile, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stressed that the ceasefire between Iran and the United States unequivocally includes all fronts, including Lebanon, asserting that any violation on one front constitutes a violation of the ceasefire across all fronts.

Araghchi also held both the United States and Israel fully responsible for the consequences of any breach of the agreement.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei stated during his weekly press conference that the ceasefire in Lebanon continues to be violated.

Baghaei also reaffirmed Tehran’s commitment to making every possible effort to assist Lebanon and support the resistance in the country.

“The United States and Israel cannot be viewed as separate parties. Everything that happens in Lebanon certainly involves the United States as a central actor,” he said.

He further noted that “the ceasefire in Lebanon is an integral part of any ceasefire and final agreement to end the war.”

For his part, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian expressed deep concern over regional developments, ceasefire violations in Lebanon, the continued displacement of Lebanese civilians, and U.S. support for Israeli actions.

During a telephone conversation with Japan’s prime minister, Pezeshkian called on the international community to assume its responsibilities and take effective action to halt the current trajectory.

Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf also stated that the maritime blockade and the escalation of Israeli war crimes in Lebanon constitute clear evidence of the United States’ failure to uphold the ceasefire.

Warning of future consequences, Ghalibaf declared: “Every option has a price, and the bill will inevitably come due. Everything will eventually return to its proper place.”

Separately, the spokesperson for the General Staff of Iran’s Armed Forces condemned the silence of Western leaders while Israel exploited the ceasefire to kill more than 3,000 Lebanese people.

The Iranian Armed Forces also warned Israeli enemy leaders and their supporters against continuing such actions, stressing that the continuation of military operations in Lebanon would be entirely unacceptable to Iran’s armed forces.
