Bibi more worried about Lebanon Hezbollah than Iran nukes; Defies Trump again amid pull back claim?

Israel is increasingly worried that the emerging U.S.-Iran agreement could strengthen Tehran’s influence in Lebanon and limit Israel’s ability to act against Hezbollah. Reports suggest Israeli officials are particularly concerned about Lebanon-related provisions and a new deconfliction mechanism proposed after talks in Switzerland. While the agreement calls for an end to hostilities, Israeli leaders have made clear that military operations in southern Lebanon will continue if security threats remain. As Iran pushes for a larger regional role, the dispute over Lebanon is becoming one of the first major tests of the Trump administration’s understanding with Tehran.
