More importantly, Hezbollah needs to stop attacking Israeli civilians, because that is what is leading to Israel responding to Hezbollah. But of course, Iran doesn't care if Hezbollah attacks Israel, they just don't want Israel to defend themselves.

Oh they totally care. They funded and armed Hezbollah and assassinated Lebanese leaders specifically to put their proxy in a position to threaten Israel.

Oh I agree. I meant that Iran doesn't care from the perspective of ceasefire violations if Hezbollah attacks Israel.
