Lebanon has extended the suspension of flights to and from Iran, the Lebanese presidency says after a cabinet meeting, without clarifying the extension period. Lebanon halted an Iranian flight to Beirut last week after the Israeli military accused Tehran of using civilian aircraft to smuggle cash to Beirut to arm the Lebanese group Hezbollah. Iran said, in turn, it would not allow Lebanese flights to land until its flights were cleared to land in Beirut.
