TL;DR

Iran's ambassador to Lebanon has until Sunday to leave the country — the expulsion deadline approaches with no sign of reversal.

MSM Perspective

Al Jazeera reported the deadline as a diplomatic calendar item.

X Perspective

X's Middle East analysts see the expulsion as Lebanon signaling it will not be Iran's second front, regardless of the war's outcome.

Iran's ambassador to Lebanon has until March 29 — Sunday — to depart the country following Lebanon's expulsion order issued on March 24. The order followed Israeli strikes that killed over 1,000 people in Lebanon this month and Defense Minister Katz's threat to apply a "Gaza model." [1]

Lebanon's decision to expel Iran's ambassador while under Israeli bombardment signals a calculation: proximity to Iran is more dangerous than distance from it.
