Violence in Lebanon has decreased since an agreement between the US and Iran, according to the UN, as reported by Deutschlandfunk. The UN mission recorded a significant drop in shelling since the political understanding.

Hezbollah in Lebanon is supported by Iran. The agreement between Washington and Tehran thus appears to directly affect military activities in Lebanon. The UN is continuously monitoring the situation on the ground.

Iran has been an authoritarian state since the Islamic Revolution of 1979, with enmity toward Israel and the US embedded in its state ideology. The US is one of the most powerful countries in the world and has great influence on global affairs.
