The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah extended his salute to the "brave fighters of Gaza, the mighty heroes and knights," as well as to the "patient and steadfast people of Gaza, the exemplars of resilience and endurance in our time."

During his address commemorating the 10th of Muharram, the anniversary of Ashura, Sayyed Nasrallah emphasized that "the ongoing struggle of the Resistance signifies victory for all the people in the region who have endured aggression from the Israeli entity—occupation, massacres, aggression, and threats alike," saying that "the essence of Ashura is to stand up for the oppressed."

Sayyed Nasrallah declared that Hezbollah's support extends to Palestine, the oppressed Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and the people of Lebanon," further stating that "Lebanon has entered a new phase since October 8, joining the front of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, as it is a battle for the entire nation. We stand alongside support fronts in Yemen and Iraq, joined by Syria and Iran as steadfast allies."

Sayyed Nasrallah continued, emphasizing, "There are three Arab countries still directly suffering from Israeli occupation, aggression, and terrorism: Palestine, Lebanon, and Syria."

He praised the Yemeni support for the Gaza front, saying, “Yemen was able to prevent the ships of the aggression from crossing the Red Sea to occupied Palestine, and imposed a siege on the port of Eilat, which went bankrupt according to Zionist officials.”

Sayyed Nasrallah renews threats against Israeli attacks on Lebanon 

Sayyed Nasrallah stressed that for the first time, the Israeli occupation has acknowledged a shortage of tanks due to damage sustained on the battlefronts in Gaza and the North.

The Leader of the Lebanese Resistance threatened the occupation saying, "If your [Israeli] tanks come to Lebanon and South Lebanon, you will not have a shortage of tanks, as you will no longer have any tanks left."

He also stressed that if "Israel" continues to target civilians, the Resistance will launch rockets and target new settlements that had not been targeted before.

Sayyed Nasrallah stressed that the Resistance will not cease operations on the Lebanese front as long as the aggression on Gaza continues, adding that: "For 10 months, the threat of war did not deter us, even when Israel did not face shortages."

'Lebanon decides and negotiates': Sayyed Nasrallah 

He further added that "Reports of a pre-existing agreement on Lebanon's southern borders are incorrect," emphasizing that "the outcome of this battle will determine the future developments in the South."

He also paid tribute to the steadfast and vigilant people supporting the Resistance, asserting that "the frontline villages will be rebuilt as they were, and even more beautiful, as they are a symbol of our resilience and resistance."

Sayyed Nasrallah pointed out that "in the event of a ceasefire, the party concerned with negotiating and providing answers is the Lebanese state." 

'The occupation's darkest days'

Regarding the other side of the front, Sayyed Nasrallah highlighted that "the Israeli entity is enduring its darkest days and most challenging conditions on all fronts, as disclosed by its own political and military leaders," adding that "for the first time, the leaders of the occupation and its elites are discussing the potential destruction of the Third Temple, foreshadowing an end and demise."

He added, "Even after 10 months of relentless aggression, Israel has failed to achieve its objectives, masking its shortcomings with horrific massacres against civilians in Gaza."

The Secretary-General detailed, "For the first time, Israel is suffering on all fronts: its army, its security apparatuses, its government, its parties, its society, its security, and its economy. This widespread suffering is the result of the steadfast Resistance in Gaza, the West Bank, and various support fronts."

"All attempts by the [Israeli] entity to hide its human and material losses, especially with regards to its military, has begun to surface in the past few days," he said, noting that 9,254 troops, including officers and soldiers, have been affected, with 3,000 having their limbs amputated, 650 cases of paralysis, 185 left completely blind, and several thousand suffering from severe psychological trauma.

In conclusion, Sayyed Nasrallah held the United States fully accountable for the massacres committed by the Israeli occupation because of its ongoing weapons supply to the Israeli entity.
