Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Khamenei says “the Zionist criminals should know that they are too small to cause significant damage to the strong construction of Hezbollah in Lebanon”.
In a statement on Saturday following Israel’s barbaric bombing of residential buildings in Beirut’s Zahiyeh neighborhood, the Leader said resistance forces are the ones to decide the fate of the region despite the criminal Israeli massacres.
“The killing of defenseless people in Lebanon once again revealed to everyone the ferocity of the Zionist rabid dog, and proved the short-sightedness and stupid policy of the leaders of the usurping regime,” he said.
“The terrorist gang ruling the Zionist regime did not learn from their one-year criminal war in Gaza and failed to understand that the mass killing of women, children and civilians cannot affect the solid construction of the resistance organization and destroy it.
“Now they are trying the same foolish policy in Lebanon. The Zionist criminals should know that they are too small to cause significant damage to the strong construction of Hezbollah in Lebanon. All the resistance forces of the region are with Hezbollah and support it,” the Leader said.
Ayatollah Khamenei said the fate of the region will be decided by the resistance forces, with Hezbollah at the head of them.
“The people of Lebanon have not forgotten that once upon a time when the military of the usurping regime had all the way to Beirut under its boots, it was Hezbollah that cut off their leg and made Lebanon dear and proud,” he said.
"By the power of God," Ayatollah Khamenei said, "Lebanon will make the aggressor, evil and disgraceful enemy regret” its actions.
He said, “It is obligatory for all Muslims to stand with the people of Lebanon and proud Hezbollah with their resources and help them in confronting the usurping, cruel and evil regime.”
