Over 150 Iranian Nationals, Including Diplomats, Leave Lebanon Amid Rising Tensions

Over 150 Iranian nationals, including diplomats and their families, have left Lebanon amid escalating conflict between Hezbollah and Israel. Israeli military officials warned Iranian representatives in Lebanon to leave immediately to avoid targeting. Iranian diplomats reportedly departed following Israeli air strikes near Iran's embassy and amid Lebanese government discussions about expelling Iranian personnel. Hezbollah denies the presence of Iranian military forces in Lebanon, while Lebanese authorities have called for action against any Iranian Revolutionary Guards operating in the country.
