Israel has failed to isolate the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) and to cause sedition within the resistance in the Gaza Strip, Hassan Nasrallah, Secretary-General of Lebanon’s Hezbollah, said on May 12.
Nasrallah made the remarks during a ceremony organized to commemorate senior Hezbollah commander Mustafa Badreddin, who died in Syria seven years ago.
“Benjamin Netanyahu aims to escape internal division and the disintegration of his government coalition with this operation in Gaza,” Nasrallah said.
Nasrallah stressed in his speech that the leaders of PIJ have communicated with the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas Movement, in order to “unify” their position and have a “joint reaction for the resistance in Gaza.”
“Despite all the assassinations of its leaders, the resistance movements have not weakened and neither have their capabilities,” the leader assured.
Israel kicked off a military operation against the PIJ on May 9, launching strikes against more than 250 positions of the faction in Gaza and assassinating six of its senior commanders. The operation has so far claimed the lives of 33 Palestinians, including three women and six children.
The PIJ and other armed factions in the strip responded by launching more than 1,000 rockets over the last three days, some of which reached the cities of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.
Nasrallah revealed during his speech that Hezbollah leadership has been in contact with armed factions in Gaza, voicing full readiness to offer all forms of support to the strip.
“We are in constant contact with the Palestinian factions’ commanders. We keep a close eye on the situation and its developments thanks to our brothers. In addition, we offer, within certain limits, feasible assistance,” the leader said. “But, I must emphasize, when duty forces specific actions or scenarios on us, we won’t hesitate to take an action, God willing. I will stop by this sentence, and we’ll see!”
Last year, Israel launched a similar operation against the PIJ in an attempt to isolate the faction. 49 Palestinains were killed, back then. However, the faction remained undeterred.
The ongoing Israeli military operation will not likely end with a different result. As Nasrallah has pointed out, the PIJ remains on good terms with all other Palestinian armed factions in Gaza, including the Hamas Movement who rules the strip.

Oh and go ahead take your girlfriend to their neighborhood lets see you talk Bollocks afterwards. idealist Shmuk
You cannot tell me that Lebanon’s present plight isn’t down to america protecting its interest in isreal, who then use the big stick to bully all around them. That big stick has gradually worn down over the decades.
Peter what the fuck?! America?!! are serious? Lebanon is pure and simple a mafia state controlled by iran and Syria through Hezbollah, they protect the wealthy and corrupt bankers and politciians which then created a ponzi scheem that fucked the country dry not to mention the wars they started, no electricty no internet no water and every pro western pro arab politician with a chance of changing the country to the better is assasinated or imprisoned. Wake up mana nd go do some resarch!
Guest Are you talking about USA,EUand Britain controlled by zionist mafia
The CITY which is IN London decided to re-instate Israel, it was ROTHSCHILD. This was before the US entered WWI.
Take the Jewish cock out of your mouth…
Lol… seems like Nasrallah’s anti Shitrael and Nazism approach has passed you off… who cares? U can support the Zios, but Nasrallah is a hero in front line of fighting with Zio nazi terrorists
Guest You must be very jealous of of what he did to your zionist entity
Sooner or later both sides will have to talk with one another. The isreali apartheid regime needs to abandon its wet dream of a ‘greater isreal’. It isn’t going to happen. Now that Syria is back in favour, isreali attacks on Syria will have repercussions.
Someone is busy burying his dead but still brags.
Awww look at this sad little troll coming out of his cave again
