International media reports, citing US officials, have revealed that Tehran has decided to refrain from launching military attacks in retaliation for the recent strikes on the Lebanese capital, Beirut. Sources clarified that this decision is part of broader understandings aimed at securing additional concessions from the United States during ongoing negotiations. The reports indicated that the Iranian leadership views military escalation as an attempt to derail the anticipated agreements with Washington, prompting a de-escalation step as a goodwill gesture toward the US administration to ensure the success of the diplomatic track. This shift follows earlier statements threatening a direct and firm response to the attacks in accordance with the "unity of fronts" strategy.
