Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said on Friday that the Lebanese group has carried out 670 operations against Israel in the last three months (90 days of the conflict) and that this is a historic chance for Lebanon and Iraq to get rid of the occupiers.
Nasrallah announced his speech on Wednesday, and he spoke specifically about the events on the northern front where the Hezbollah army is at war with the Israeli army.
In his televised address this Friday, Nasrallah said: “What is happening on the Lebanese-Israeli border is unprecedented since 1948. The enemy does not acknowledge the dead or the wounded” and he added: “This is part of his policy of general secrecy regarding the losses of October 8th”.
He pointed out that Hezbollah’s current operations on Lebanon’s southern border with Israel opened a “historic opportunity” for Lebanon to liberate its land occupied by Israel and that the Islamic resistance in Iraq also has a “historic opportunity” to get rid of the United States (U.S.) US presence in the area.
Nasrallah stressed that the response to what happened in the southern suburbs of Beirut is inevitable.
Tensions flared along the border between Lebanon and Israel amid occasional exchanges of fire between Israeli forces and Hezbollah.
The tension arose in the midst of Israel’s military offensive on the Gaza Strip following a cross-border attack by Hamas on October 7th, N1 writes.
