Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says his country backs efforts for a simultaneous ceasefire with Israel in both the Palestinian territory of Gaza and Lebanon.

“We support the efforts for a ceasefire, provided that first, the rights of the Lebanese people are respected and it is accepted by the (Hezbollah) resistance, and second, that it comes simultaneously with a ceasefire in Gaza,” he says during a visit to Beirut.
