Hezbollah's Resilience and New Strategies Against Israel
Naim Qassem, the Deputy Secretary-General of Hezbollah, has declared that the organization has regained its strength and operational capabilities despite facing significant challenges. In a recent speech, he emphasized that Hezbollah has adopted a 'new equation' aimed at inflicting damage on Israel, which he described as an occupying entity that poses a threat to the region. Qassem's remarks come in the wake of the assassination of the party's Secretary-General, Hassan Nasrallah, and reflect a determination to continue resistance efforts against Israeli actions in Lebanon and Palestine.
Calls for Ceasefire Amid Ongoing Conflict
During his address, Qassem stated that Hezbollah's call for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip is not a sign of weakness but a strategic move to halt Israeli aggression. He condemned the violence perpetrated by Israel, labeling it as massacres against Palestinians and asserting that the international community, including nations like the United States, Britain, and France, are complicit in these actions. Qassem reiterated the legitimacy of Palestinian resistance and the necessity of confronting Israeli expansionism in the region.
Future Outlook and Resistance Commitment
Qassem conveyed a message of resilience, urging the Lebanese people to rally around the resistance. He reassured them of Hezbollah's commitment to their safety and the liberation of their homes. Highlighting recent military successes, he stated that Hezbollah's missiles have reached significant Israeli cities, including Tel Aviv, and warned that continued conflict could lead to increased risks for Israeli settlements. He concluded by emphasizing the importance of steadfastness in the face of adversity and the need for unity among the Lebanese to achieve victory.
