Iran's Supreme National Security Council warned on Sunday that a response was "imminent" following Israeli strikes on Lebanon. "The response of the fighters of Islam is imminent," it said in a statement. "Lebanon is our life and violation of the red lines of the Islamic Republic will not be tolerated." Iran's state broadcaster subsequently reported that flights at airports in the west of the country had been cancelled until further notice.
The Israeli military had carried out fresh strikes on Dahiyeh, a southern suburb of Beirut, hitting the Ghobeiry neighbourhood, Lebanon's official National News Agency (NNA) reported.
