- Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, Iran's Parliament Speaker, warned that Tehran would respond if the U.S. and Israel breach the interim peace deal, demanding "full implementation of the agreements."
- Tehran is preparing to bury former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, with Ghalibaf framing the warning around that ceremony.
Why it matters: Ghalibaf's warning ties Iran's compliance posture to the burial of its former supreme leader, signaling that any U.S. or Israeli deviation from the deal would be met with retaliation — raising the stakes of implementation during a sensitive transition moment for Tehran.
