Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah vowed on January 3 to respond to the assassination of Saleh al-Arouri, deputy leader of the Hamas Movement, and warned Israel of a fight “without limits” if it decides to start a war against Lebanon.
Nasrallah was speaking during an event, which had been pre-planned to commemorate the fourth anniversary of the assassination of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corp general Qassem Soleimani by the United States in Iraq.
“If the enemy thinks of waging a war on Lebanon, we will fight without restraint, without rules, without limits and without restrictions,” Nasrallah said. “We are not afraid of war … For now … we are fighting on the frontline following meticulous calculations.”
Al-Arouri was killed along with six other members of Hamas in a drone strike that targeted the southern Beirut suburb of Dahiyeh, a stronghold of Hezbollah, on January 2. Both Hamas and Hezbollah held Israel responsible for the assassination.
Nasrallah described the assassination as a “major and dangerous crime,” stressing that it “will not go unanswered and unpunished.”
The leader noted that the drone strike that killed al-Arouri was “the first time they [Israel] targeted the southern suburb in this way since 2006,” referring to the war of that year which saw the near complete destruction of Dahiyeh.
Israel had sent “messages” to indicate it “did not intend to target Lebanon or Hezbollah,” but was rather “settling scores” with Hamas leaders, Nasrallah added.
Israel has vowed to target all Hamas leaders after the October 7 attack from the Gaza Strip, in which some 1,200 people were killed and around 240 taken hostage.
Hezbollah and its allies, including Hamas and other Palestinian armed factions, have been launching attacks against the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) from southern Lebanon since the outbreak of the war in Gaza. On January 3, the group announced 11 cross-border attacks.
The border clashes have resulted in four civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of nine IDF soldiers. From its side, Hezbollah has named 138 fighters who have been killed during the same period, nine of them on January 3 and 4. In addition, 24 Palestinians, a Lebanese soldier and at least 19 civilians and three journalists have been killed.
zionist are cowards just like their savior lucifer!
allah had enough of these filty dirty arab politics that’s why a hamasshole leader hiding in lebanon was killed
yeah okay lgbt transvestite soldier boi.
the terrorist leader of hezbollah believes it was a “major and dangerous crime” to assasinate one of the terrorist leaders of ham as. does he then believe that the horrible attack on civilians 7 october was not a crime?
meanwhile the idf baby killing shlomos are being ripped apart by the gallant freedom fighters in semitic gaza. every day bags of shlomo bits going back to the vipers’ nest as the chosenite monster, “mr. nitay” aka nut’nyahoo, thrashes around in his ever growing cesspool of shlomo blood. the good news is of course that the bile spitting demon has triple covaid$ squirted most of his rabid khazar trash and they are also “living” on borrowed time. ain’t karma beautiful.
karma hit them very hard. hezbollah secretary-general hassan nasrallah’s got a taste of his own medicine. if he remains like an idiot like saleh al-arouri, maybe he’ll end up with a drone strike
hamas goal was the freedom of their captive people being held in israeli jails.
wrong. hamas goal was to delete israel from the map. it’s like an addicting drug to them. cannot delete from their small brains
jews are parasites
you mean hamas and islamic terrorists and their supporters are the real pests
no, guy was clear. jews are parasites.
ohh, i have no love for muslims, they do not belong in white nations full stop. so call them pests if you want. thats fine. pests can be eradicated.
but jews are parasites. and parasites can kill. but the parasite controls the host and keeps it borderline on its death bed so it can survive.
that is the jew- a parasite that destroys host nations enough so it can thrive and control
stop yapping like a dog from your mom basement walker.
stop licking yahya sinwar’s rear end. or why don’t you join them in gaza and face the same fate with them?
why don’t you get your hasbara ass off the keyboard and go and die with the rest of the zionist filth. f’ing hasbara keyboard cowboy coward. do you know what 2000 dead and 10000 wounded zionist are? a good start. idf helped by killing 80% of those killed on oct 7. everybody loves their hannibal option, don’t you?
not true, of course. it’s just the lie you keep repeating. they want those illegally held for years released in trade. but israel will kill their own first before they do that, won’t they? the truth of fascist satanic israel is out, nutsack is the embodiment of israel. when he goes israel will have no path except to dissolution. the world awaits with baited breath it’s demise.
fuck off jew coont and take your oct 7th propaganda with you. butthurt cowardly jew whining like a pussy. ashkenazi sub-human animals will all be massacred :)
that is how the religion of peace behaves. lower than animals. they love a culture of rape and death.
how else? israelis are raised to be this way. they are exceptional, they say so. they surround themselves with the same ilk, liars and cowards that slaughter only the unarmed, weak or innocent. they even kill themselves, they love it so much. bring on more of the hannibal option, they ain’t all dead yet.
you behave like an uncivilized squatter where you spent your whole life learning the culture of rapists and beheaders from the religion of peace.
but that’s the zionist way, isn’t it? murder, organ stealing, raping little boys, shooting old men and women, killing your own so they can’t be hostages…zionists are experts in the darker aspects of life, living through lies, coercion, blackmail, drug trafficking, human trafficking, war. their worst nightmare is morality and the human spirit. they have neither.
another asswipe of them jews
the world wants to see “precision” cigar deliveries to the subhuman filth posing as humans in the apartheid abomination in reptile occupied palestine. don’t talk…send the beautiful birds of freedom to pick the bones clean of the scavenger chosenite filth.
taunting israel is like allowing them to free kill any rabbits they can find eating and chewing at farmlands.
nasrallah the rat is despised by most people in libanon – he should be barbecued as soon as possible 😀
terroristsawyer sounds more appealing for you.
rabbit hunting challenge at syria and lebanon is accepted.
time to send the big missils, balistiq havy loaded explosifs. delet the illegal entity israhell from our planet and univers !!! stop using the dollar, it will end all wars.
iran can’t prevent a bomb explosion within their country. let alone firing missiles accurately.
hezbollah needs to shit or get off the pot imo. we hear lots and lots of talk as what will happen if this, that, and the other occurs, yet the isreali apartheid regime keeps rolling on with its assassinations, its ethnic cleansing of palestine, to which hezbollah send over a few pipe bombs. maybe hezbollah just isn’t ready to do what they promised? maybe they are waiting to see if the un will sort it out? maybe 20,000 dead palestinian’s isn’t enough?
