The al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas, published a tribute photo of Martyr of the Ummah Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the late Secretary-General of Hezbollah, with the message: “Gaza will never forget those who stood by it.”
Alongside the image, al-Qassam quoted Sayyed Nasrallah’s words: “We are here to achieve victory for Palestine, for the oppressed Gaza Strip, for the West Bank, and for the people of Lebanon. Since October 8, we have entered a different battle and opened the support front for the al-Aqsa Flood, because it is the battle of the Ummah.”
The statement was widely circulated across social media, where many saw it as a renewed affirmation of the shared struggle between the Lebanese and Palestinian resistance fronts against the Israeli occupation.
Nasrallah’s assassination and the escalation of resistance
Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah was assassinated on September 27, 2024, in an Israeli airstrike targeting Hezbollah’s central command headquarters in Beirut’s southern suburb. His assassination marked one of the most significant escalations in the region since the start of the Israeli war on Gaza.
A year earlier, on October 8, 2023, Hezbollah had launched its first operations in support of Gaza following the start of Operation al-Aqsa Flood. The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon struck Israeli radar positions and military outposts in Zibdin and Ruwaisat al-Alam with artillery and guided missiles.
In a statement at the time, Hezbollah said: “On the path to liberating our remaining occupied Lebanese land, and in solidarity with the valiant Palestinian resistance and the steadfast, struggling Palestinian people, the groups of Martyr Commander Imad Mughniyeh attacked three Israeli occupation sites in the occupied Shebaa Farms, hitting them directly.”
Hezbollah commemorates October 7
Hezbollah issued a statement Tuesday marking the second anniversary of Operation al-Aqsa Flood, reaffirming its “unwavering commitment to the Palestinian cause” and vowing to remain aligned with “the steadfast and resilient people of Palestine.”
Describing the October 7 operation as a “battle of sacrifice, liberation, will, and steadfastness,” the statement declared that Hezbollah “renews its pledge to stand with the Palestinian people who, through patience and perseverance mixed with tragedy and pain, have taught the world the highest lessons of pride and dignity in the face of the most criminal Israeli entity, supported by a brutal American administration.”
Hezbollah said that the confrontation, which began in 2023, “revealed from its very first moment the true face of the criminal Zionist entity, stripped of any human quality and backed by the arrogant American tyrant.”
The statement accused both the Israeli regime and Washington of “trampling every law, international resolution, and humanitarian consideration,” and of “violating the sovereignty of nations and massacring the people of Gaza through starvation and displacement.” Hezbollah added that the Israeli campaign “has laid bare its expansionist and aggressive schemes.”
Regional solidarity and divine promise
“Greetings to the free and steadfast people of Palestine, rooted in their land, who faced the Zionist killing machine with their bare chests,” the statement continued. “Greetings to the starving children of Gaza, the bereaved mothers, and the free hearts that still embrace hope for imminent relief.”
Hezbollah extended thanks to its allies and supporters, particularly the Islamic Republic of Iran under the leadership of Sayyed Ali Khamenei, as well as to Yemen, Iraq, and all “free peoples of the world who raised the voice of Palestine high and carried the cries of Gaza’s children and women to the world.”
Concluding, Hezbollah stated that “this historic occasion will remain immortal, a testimony to a people who rose against an occupier, fought, sacrificed, and endured.” It added: “By God’s will, they will triumph, for they are worthy of victory, and Palestine will return fully to its people despite every conspirator, normalizer, and coward. This is a divine promise, and God never breaks His promise.”
