VP JD made a statement that the Iranians misunderstood that the ceasefire included Lebanon. I.e., Israel has a free hand to continue to level Lebanon.

However, the Pakistani PM was quite clear in his original tweet about Lebanon. He even cc'd JD and trump.

What do we expect. This administration simply lies every time it opens its mouth.

Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez had sharp words for Netanyahu — “His contempt for life and international law is intolerable.”

Will the ceasefire hold?

From apnews.com/…

Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said Wednesday that a ceasefire and negotiations with the U.S. on ending the war is “unreasonable” as he accused the U.S. of violating three of Tehran’s 10 conditions for an end to the fighting. It comes as the not yet day-old ceasefire appears at risk of fraying over significant disagreements between the parties. Ghalibaf, a key figure in the Pakistan-brokered negotiations to end the conflict, objected in a social media post to — the continuation of Israeli attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon, an alleged drone incursion into Iranian airspace after the ceasefire was in effect and the Trump administration’s assertion that it won’t accept any Iranian enrichment capabilities as part of an agreement to end the conflict.
