Lebanon expels Iranian ambassador, Herzog calls it "historic revolution"

President Herzog announced that the Lebanese government has decided to expel and deport the Iranian ambassador, calling it a "revolution" in Lebanon where the Iranian ambassador had been "de facto the high commissioner." Herzog stated this is "a significant statement" requiring understanding of potential changes that "we must not miss," emphasizing the need to complete diplomatic moves alongside military action. French President Macron spoke with Herzog, saying he is "convinced that the renewal of direct talks between Israel and Lebanon is an opportunity that must be seized" and that France is working to advance this goal.
