Jeremy Scahill, Murtaza Hussain, and Ryan Grim analyze a ceasefire agreement between the U.S. and Iran, reporting that Tehran views it as a temporary pause rather than a durable settlement. Per the analysis, escalating attacks in Lebanon threaten to destabilize the agreement before implementation. The sources argue these dynamics create significant uncertainty about whether the ceasefire will hold or deteriorate into broader conflict.
