[RIA] Israel has violated the ceasefire reached between Tehran and Washington several times this day, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said.
"The President condemned several ceasefire violations, including the attacks on the islands of Lavan and Sirri," his press service said.
They added that the Islamic Republic intends to respond decisively to any attacks.
Earlier on Wednesday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi discussed the ceasefire violation with Pakistan, which acted as a mediator between Tehran and Washington.
On Wednesday night, the two countries agreed to a two-week ceasefire. The Israeli army also announced a pause in attacks, but continued its operation against the Shiite Hezbollah movement. Airstrikes and artillery struck more than ten towns in southern Lebanon.
Meanwhile, according to media reports, Israel, in conjunction with the Americans, launched strikes on an oil refinery in southern Iran. The IRGC reported downing a Hermes 900 drone over the southern province of Fars. According to the Iranian Fars news agency, simultaneously with the Israeli attacks on Lebanon, tanker transit through the Strait of Hormuz was also halted.
Under the terms of the ceasefire with Washington, Tehran pledged to ensure safe navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. Currently, only friendly countries are allowed to pass through. According to the Tasnim news agency, these include Russia, China, India, Iraq, and Pakistan.
Iran's ten-point plan could form the basis of a future agreement. According to it, Iran retains control of Hormuz, is exempt from sanctions, receives compensation, and continues to enrich uranium. US President Donald Trump called this proposal acceptable for the beginning of dialogue. The first round of talks will take place on April 10 in Islamabad.
