Iranian officials: The United States turned to economic pressure to show that its military strike was of limited effect

On the Lebanese side, an interview with the Secretary of the Supreme State Security Council of Iran, Rezai, was broadcast on the evening of 27 local time. In the programme, Rezai stated that the United States had turned to pressure on the Iranian economy, indicating that its military strike had not produced the desired results. Rezai stated that Iran believes that the security of Lebanon is part of the security of the region as a whole. The terms of any agreement between Iran and the United States would be a ceasefire in all parts of Western Asia, including Lebanon, the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanese territory and an end to the fighting in Gaza。
