The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon will be the primary focus of talks between Iran and the United States in Switzerland on Sunday, Iranian officials said.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said Israel's military actions in Lebanon would top the agenda during negotiations taking place at the Swiss resort of Burgenstock.
"The Zionist regime continues to violate its commitment in Lebanon. This issue will be the main topic of discussion in today's talks," Baghaei said in a video shared by Iran's state news agency IRNA.
The talks come days after Tehran and Washington announced an agreement aimed at ending months of hostilities that began on February 28 following US-Israeli attacks on Iran. Under the agreement, fighting between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon was also expected to cease.
Iran's military announced on Saturday that it had again closed the Strait of Hormuz, citing continued Israeli military operations in Lebanon.
Baghaei said that no fresh strikes had been reported since Saturday evening and described the situation in Lebanon as a "fragile cessation" of hostilities.
According to Baghaei, Iranian and US delegations will meet with mediators from Pakistan and Qatar. The talks will begin with separate meetings before a four-party session later in the day involving all delegations.
In addition to Lebanon, Iran plans to raise the issue of frozen Iranian assets and restrictions on oil exports.
"The issue of making available Iran's frozen or restricted assets, as well as the discussion related to issuing the necessary licences for the sale of Iranian oil, will also be on the agenda," Baghaei said.
Iran has not officially disclosed the value of its frozen assets, though media reports have estimated the amount at more than $100 billion. Much of those funds have remained inaccessible since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
