The Lebanese President: We are certainly in favor of a ceasefire and any country that helps us, including Iran.

- Lebanese President Joseph Aoun said on Wednesday that Lebanon welcomes support from any country, including Iran, to help reach a ceasefire, in a move reflecting a more conciliatory tone towards Tehran after weeks of sharp criticism.

Earlier this month, Aoun accused Iran of using Lebanon as a bargaining chip in its negotiations with the United States, and said that Lebanese people were being killed to serve Tehran's interests.
