Iran backs Lebanon in ceasefire talks with Israel and seeks an end to the conflict that has affected its ally Hezbollah. Israel has intensified its airstrikes in the Hezbollah-controlled suburbs of Beirut, coinciding with signs of movement in US-led diplomacy towards a ceasefire. The US ambassador to Lebanon presented a draft ceasefire proposal to Lebanon's parliament speaker, who is endorsed by Hezbollah to negotiate. Iran's senior official, Ali Larijani, stated that they support the Lebanese government and are seeking a solution to the problems. The outgoing US administration is also working towards securing a ceasefire in Lebanon.
