Netanyahu’s insistence on war quickens Israel’s demise: Hezbollah official
A senior official with Lebanon’s resistance movement Hezbollah has said that the Israeli prime minister’s insistence on waging another war against the country only serves to speed up the occupying entity’s demise.
Sayyed Hashem Safieddine, chairman of the movement’s Executive Council, made the remarks on Thursday, Resistance News Network, a Telegram channel, reported.
“The more the Israeli enemy's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insists on war, the quicker he hastens the end of the entity,” he said.
The Israeli regime has been waging sporadic attacks on southern Lebanon since October 7, when it started a genocidal war against the Gaza Strip.
The attacks have sparked a firefight with Hezbollah, which fought off two Israeli wars against the country in 2000 and 2006.
Over the past months, the regime has repeatedly threatened to expand the war on Gaza, which has killed close to 39,000 Palestinians so far, to Lebanon.
Commenting on the Tel Aviv regime’s warmongering attitude on Wednesday, Lebanon’s caretaker Foreign Minister Abdullah Bou Habib said, “We have heard dozens of statements issued by senior Israeli officials threatening to burn Lebanon, destroy it, and return it to the Stone Age.”
The resistance movement has, however, pledged to defend the country with all its resources in the event of another Israeli war.
Also on Wednesday, Hezbollah’s Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah insisted on the group’s capability to successfully head off such potential military onslaught.
“If your tanks come to Lebanon and south Lebanon, you will not have a shortage of tanks, as you will no longer have any tanks left,” he said.
