(FOX NEWS) — Iran is halting its indirect talks with U.S. negotiators in protest against Israel’s attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon, Iranian state-linked media reported Monday.
Iran’s Tasnim news agency, linked to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, reported that Tehran is cutting off talks due to the “continued crimes of the Zionist regime in Lebanon.”
The report comes after Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi posted to social media saying Lebanon must be included in the ongoing ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran.
“The United States and Israel bear responsibility for the consequences of any breach of the truce,” Araghchi wrote.
