Houthi Leader Responds to Israeli Threats Amid Escalating Conflict
In a significant escalation of tensions in the Middle East, Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has condemned Israel's recent military actions against Hezbollah, stating that the assassination of resistance leaders will not bring stability to Tel Aviv. Following the reported death of Hezbollah's Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, al-Houthi expressed that Israel's attempts to eliminate resistance figures will ultimately fail. He emphasized that the Zionist enemy's efforts to secure its safety through such violent measures will not succeed, asserting solidarity with the Palestinian and Lebanese people in their struggle against Israeli aggression.
The Israeli military confirmed ongoing operations against Hezbollah, claiming to have targeted numerous sites and eliminated key figures within the organization. Al-Houthi’s statement comes as the Houthis have intensified their military activities, launching missiles towards Israel in retaliation for the ongoing conflict in Gaza and Lebanon. The Houthi military spokesman, Yahya Saree, declared that military operations will continue until Israeli attacks cease, highlighting the group's commitment to the Palestinian cause.
Hezbollah Vows to Continue Resistance Following Nasrallah's Death
Hezbollah has confirmed the death of its leader, Hassan Nasrallah, during a targeted Israeli airstrike on its headquarters in Beirut. The group has vowed to maintain its armed resistance against Israel, asserting that it will continue to fight in support of Gaza and the Lebanese people. Hezbollah’s statement followed a series of intense Israeli air raids that reportedly killed numerous commanders and destroyed significant military infrastructure.
In the wake of Nasrallah's death, Iranian officials have indicated readiness to support Hezbollah militarily, with potential troop deployments to Lebanon being discussed. Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has called for unity among Muslims to support Hezbollah, framing the conflict as a struggle against Israeli aggression. As the situation continues to evolve, both Hezbollah and the Houthis remain committed to their resistance efforts, signaling a potential escalation in regional hostilities.
