Secretary-General Naim Qassem on Saturday accused Israel of violating the November ceasefire agreement, warning that the terror group would act if the Lebanese government failed to resolve the matter diplomatically.
Speaking with Lebanon’s Hezbollah-affiliated Al-Manar TV, Qassem said it fell to the Lebanese state to respond to Israeli strikes on Beirut and southern Lebanon, but warned that “if Israel does not abide by the terms of the truce and the government fails to achieve the desired results, we will have no choice but to consider other options.”
On Friday, the Israel Defense Forces attacked Beirut’s southern Dahiyeh neighborhood for the first time in four months, targeting drone storage facilities used by Hezbollah’s aerial unit (Unit 127). The strikes came in response to two rockets fired at the Galilee city of Kiryat Shmona on Friday morning, the third such breach of the ceasefire since it went into effect on Nov.
