Iran’s Supreme National Security Council said the memorandum of understanding with the United States provides for the immediate and permanent suspension of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon, as well as the end of the US naval blockade on Iranian ports.
“Based on the agreements reached, the war and military operations on all fronts, including Lebanon, will end immediately and permanently as of tonight,” the council’s secretariat said in a statement.
The statement added that the naval blockade against Iran would end “immediately and completely” and that the memorandum of understanding would be formally signed on 19 June.
Iranian officials said negotiations on a final agreement would begin only after the other party had fulfilled its obligations under the memorandum.
The statement also expressed appreciation for mediation efforts by Pakistan and Qatar, which have played key roles in facilitating talks between Washington and Tehran.
