Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi affirmed on Tuesday that the Axis of Resistance remains robust, active, and resilient in the region.
Araghchi stated that "the enemies are attempting to destabilize the Resistance front through media and psychological warfare," noting that this strategy has inflicted significant setbacks on the Syrian army.
Regarding Lebanon, Araghchi added that Hezbollah is poised to grow stronger and more resolute following the martyrdom of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.
Enemy strikes at Resistance should not be considered victory: Araghchi
On Sunday, Araghchi said that the recent strikes against the Axis of Resistance should not be interpreted by adversaries as a sign of victory, but rather as the beginning of their eventual defeat.
Speaking at a ceremony marking the fifth anniversary of the martyrdom of General Qassem Soleimani, Commander of the Quds Force in the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC), and his companions, Araghchi emphasized that diplomacy is an integral part of the broader "Resistance School".
He highlighted that diplomatic efforts progress in parallel with actions on the ground, with both complementing each other in the ongoing struggle.
Hezbollah 'more powerful than ever before': Safa
In a related context, Wafiq Safa, head of Hezbollah's Coordination and Liaison Unit, stated in a Sunday press conference that Hezbollah is "stronger and more resilient than steel" and "more powerful than ever before, as witnessed by the enemy."
In his first media appearance after the war on Lebanon, Safa stated that Hezbollah is "ready for all challenges," and "will stand with the people, behind them, and on the ground" to rebuild what was destroyed during the Israeli aggression.
During a tour in the Southern Suburb of Beirut, specifically at the site where Hezbollah's former Secretary-General martyr Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah was assassinated by "Israel", Safa stressed that the group will be "involved in every aspect" that impacts the morale of the people.
He added, "We have always stood and will continue to stand with the people of Resistance, protecting them from any harm internally, and there will be no possibility for anyone to break our morale," reassuring everyone that there is no need for concern.
Regarding whether Hezbollah will respond to Israeli violations, Safa revealed that Hezbollah's capabilities have been restored and that the group has the ability to confront any aggression in the manner it deems appropriate.
He added that what happens after the 60-day period designated for the withdrawal of the Israeli occupation forces from Lebanon "is up to Hezbollah and its leadership."
