First, Iran\u2019s joint military command said the strait had been closed, citing Israeli attacks and U.S. \u201cbad faith\u201d and \u201cits clear breach of its commitments\u201d by failing to end the war.<\/p>\n

The statement on state television warned that \u201cif the aggression continues, subsequent steps have been planned.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Minutes later, the state broadcaster said the country\u2019s negotiating team was heading to Switzerland, a trip that was originally planned for Friday but was canceled.<\/p>\n

Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Bagahei, Bagahei, however, signaled that little might happen until Iran feels the U.S. is living up to the deal.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis trip is therefore about demanding that the other side fulfill its obligations,\u201d he said, adding that negotiations toward a final agreement will begin only once key commitments, including an end to fighting in Lebanon, are upheld.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf any part of these understandings, any part of these commitments, is not implemented, then the memorandum of understanding as a whole will be jeopardized,\u201d Bagahei said.<\/p>\n

Ships had begun transiting the strait after the interim U.S.-Iran agreement was signed earlier in the week.<\/p>\n

Israeli attacks in Lebanon kill at least 16<\/h4>\n

Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon on Saturday killed at least 16 people, including two children, hours after reports emerged of a ceasefire agreement. The persistent fighting threatened an\u00a0interim agreement between the United States and Iran\u00a0to end the\u00a0war in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Seven people remained trapped under the rubble after the strikes hit the southern town of Nabatiyeh and nearby villages, Lebanon\u2019s National News Agency said.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Mediators were scrambling to halt the fighting between Israel and the militant Lebanese Hezbollah group, after a heavy exchange on Friday killed at least 47 people in Lebanon and four Israeli soldiers.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

An Israeli military official said Hezbollah had fired more than 50 projectiles at Israeli forces in southern Lebanon overnight, prompting the military to start targeting the militant group there. The official spoke anonymously in line with regulations. The army said it struck dozens of Hezbollah targets and militants in southern Lebanon, including rocket-launching positions and Hezbollah command centers.<\/p>\n

On Friday, Israeli ambassador to Washington, Yechiel Leiter, said on X that Israel \u201cremains firmly committed to an immediate ceasefire\u201d if Hezbollah honors the agreement and ceases hostilities.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, Hezbollah said it had committed to the ceasefire but blamed Israel for violating it several times on Friday night. A statement issued by the group\u2019s military wing said it would abide by the ceasefire but would also repel attacks by Israeli troops.<\/p>\n

A conflict that could sink the US-Iran deal<\/h4>\n

Hezbollah and Israel went to war just days after the U.S. and Israel launched strikes on Iran on Feb. 28, with Hezbollah\u00a0firing rockets and drones\u00a0at northern Israel and Israel\u00a0seizing large swaths of southern Lebanon.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0interim U.S.-Iran agreement\u00a0signed this week has already reopened the\u00a0Strait of Hormuz, which Iran had closed as the war unfolded \u2014 cutting off the global economy from significant supplies of oil and natural gas. The deal also envisages the relaunch of talks on Iran\u2019s nuclear program, a core issue in the war.<\/p>\n

Neither Israel nor Hezbollah are signatories to the deal, which calls for a halt to military operations in Lebanon and for the country\u2019s sovereignty to be respected. With the fighting continuing, the accord is under threat and\u00a0U.S.-Iran talks in Switzerland, planned to start Friday, have been delayed, with no new date announced.<\/p>\n

Israeli Prime Minister\u00a0Benjamin Netanyahu\u00a0has vowed to keep Israeli forces in southern Lebanon until any threat to Israel is eliminated. Hezbollah has refused to halt its attacks unless Israel commits to withdrawing from Lebanon, which Iran says is also a condition of the deal.<\/p>\n

A new\u00a0round of U.S.-backed talks\u00a0between the Lebanese government and Israel is expected to take place in Washington next week.<\/p>\n

The fighting in the south, near the Israel-Lebanon border<\/h4>\n

A strike on the village of Barish killed four members of a family, parents and two children. In Arab Salim village, a body was pulled from a destroyed house, and in the villages of Doueir and Kfar Rumman, drone strikes killed a person on a motorcycle and a Lebanese soldier. Nine people were killed in strikes in the villages of Qannarit, Sohmor and Shehour.<\/p>\n

Plumes of smoke rose into the sky over southern Lebanon and Israeli jets flew low over the coastal city of Tyre on Saturday. Residents there told The Associated Press they were relieved that Tyre had been spared in recent days but the sounds of Israeli planes reminded them the war is not over.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Many doubted a ceasefire \u2014 even if agreed on \u2014 would hold.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur entire lives would change if there\u2019s a ceasefire,\u201d said Hussein Khoshman, a Tyre resident.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Netanyahu\u2019s office did not immediately comment on the ceasefire efforts. On Friday, Netanyahu posted on X that, on his orders, the Israeli army had \u201cstruck powerfully\u201d 150 Hezbollah targets, killing dozens of militants.<\/p>\n

Military spokesman Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin said the Israeli forces were operating in a \u201cforward defense zone\u201d and would continue doing so.<\/p>\n

Iranian and US officials cancel travel to Switzerland<\/h4>\n

After Iran said its officials did not travel as planned to Switzerland, insisting that the fighting in Lebanon must stop before the talks can take place, U.S. Vice President JD Vance\u00a0also postponed his trip.<\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei told the semi-official ISNA news agency on Saturday that Pakistan\u2019s interior minister will arrive in Iran as part of continued negotiation efforts. Baghaei had said earlier that consultations through mediators were ongoing regarding the next phase of negotiations to draft a final U.S.-Iran agreement.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Because the initial deal was signed digitally earlier this week, the talks in Switzerland were not urgent, and plans were underway to hold a meeting in the coming days, he said.<\/p>\n

The Swiss foreign ministry said diplomats were in talks on Saturday in the town of B\u00fcrgenstock on how to implement the U.S.-Iran deal, without offering details.<\/p>\n
