The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah issued a strong statement through its Operations Room in response to continued Israeli aggression on Lebanon and Gaza, pledging that the struggle against the Israeli occupation would continue until the cessation of war on Gaza.

The statement reaffirmed the group’s preparedness and the enhanced capability of its missile forces, warning the Israeli occupation that any further attacks on Lebanon would be met with intensified retaliation, reiterating remarks by Hezbollah's Deputy Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem.

Sheikh Qassem had earlier on Tuesday emphasized Hezbollah's readiness to strike anywhere in occupied Palestine.

According to the statement, Hezbollah's capabilities would be directed by the Resistance's leadership through a command-and-control system that has developed to become "stronger and more resilient" than before.

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon cautioned that the Israeli occupation's continued aggression against Lebanese civilians would provoke retaliatory missile strikes.

"Haifa and beyond will be treated by the Resistance's missiles as Kiryat Shmona, Metulla, and other border settlements," it warned, citing the recent missile strikes on Haifa and its vicinity as evidence of the seriousness of this warning.

Hezbollah declared that it possesses the ability to strike the Israeli occupation in unexpected ways and locations, noting that its attacks on occupied territory would not be limited to missiles or drones.

"The Islamic Resistance sees and hears where the enemy least expects, and its hand can reach wherever it wishes in occupied Palestine," the statement said.

The statement also highlighted the ongoing fierce battles in southern Lebanon, where Hezbollah’s fighters continue to resist Israeli attempts to advance into Lebanese villages near the border area.

In the unfolding "epic battles," Hezbollah underlined that Israeli forces have suffered significant casualties, with more than 35 soldiers killed and 200 wounded from the Israeli occupation forces' elite units.

Israeli soldiers, the statement stressed, are hiding behind UNIFIL positions and attempting to move through unseen paths but have so far failed to enter the villages protected by Hezbollah.

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon repeated a warning it issued at the onset of the war, declaring that what the enemy had experienced so far is only "a fraction of the severe might that awaits them" in southern Lebanon.

Addressing the Lebanese people directly, Hezbollah’s statement praised their steadfastness and sacrifice, describing them as "the secret of our resilience, our pride, and all our victories."

Moreover, the Resistance commended the people’s patience and loyalty, stating that their prayers and support fuel the strength of Hezbollah’s fighters. "Through your prayers, we sharpen our determination and fight with pride," the statement read.

Concluding with a message to Gaza, Hezbollah expressed its unwavering solidarity with the Palestinian people and their Resistance against Israeli occupation. The movement reaffirmed its commitment to supporting the people of Gaza and their "brave and honorable resistance," viewing this as a sacred duty.

Hezbollah emphasized that the ongoing struggle is in line with the will of the "master of the martyrs on the path to al-Quds" Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, and vowed to continue its support "until our last breath."

Hezbollah operating fully

In a televised address commemorating the anniversary of the Lebanese Support Front for the Gaza Strip on October 8, 2023, Sheikh Qassem reassured the Resistance's popular base, stating, "We do not have any vacant positions [within Hezbollah]; all positions are filled, and Hezbollah is operating orderly and at full readiness."

The Hezbollah deputy chief confirmed on Tuesday that Hezbollah's command and control as well as the management of the party and the Resistance are “in an orderly manner and in accordance with the party's norms,” stressing that the Resistance “overcame the painful blows that it suffered.”

He explained that the party "will proceed with the election of the Secretary-General as per the party's regulations," which will be announced at the appropriate time.

Sheikh Qassem affirmed that the merits and capabilities that the martyred leaders possessed are evident in their assistants and possible successors.

"The administration is cohesive" and so are "the Resistance fighters on the frontlines.," he said. "This war has not affected our will and will not affect our determination to confront [the enemy]."

Sheikh Qassem pointed out that the Resistance fighters have proven their worth on the ground.
