The leader of the Lebanese group Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, warned that his group would fight “without rules” if a broader war with Israel breaks out, stating that no place in Israel would be safe from attacks.
In a televised address, Nasrallah mentioned that potential targets could include those in the Mediterranean Sea.
Nasrallah also issued a threat to Cyprus for the first time, stating that Hezbollah might consider the country involved in the conflict if it continues to allow Israel to use its airports and bases for military exercises.
“The enemy knows well that we have prepared for the worst… and that no place will be spared from our rockets,” Nasrallah said in his televised speech.
He stated that in the event of a full-scale war, Israel would have to defend itself “on land, at sea, and in the air.”
Furthermore, Nasrallah also mentioned that the significant pressure from the southern Lebanese front, among others, influences the negotiations on the outcome of the war in Gaza, asserting that the Israeli military is incapable of covering all fronts.
“We will continue to support Gaza and are ready for anything. We are not afraid. Our demand is clear: a complete and permanent ceasefire in Gaza,” Nasrallah concluded.
