MP Sherri to Al Mayadeen

Speaking to Al Mayadeen, a member of the Loyalty to the Resistance Bloc, MP Amin Sherri stressed that the occupation was trying to break the people's resolve and intimidate the people of Beirut.

He stated that through its aggression on Beirut, the occupation seeks to instill fear and provoke a new wave of displacement. However, he emphasized, "We have not witnessed any displacement following the recent attack on Beirut. The people remain resolute, and the occupation will not succeed in breaking their resilience."

This aggression comes after two Israeli strikes on the heart of Beirut on Sunday, one in Ras al-Nabaa, targeting Hezbollah Media Relations Chief Mohammad Afif and four of his companions, and another on Mar Elias, which targeted a building and a vehicle, killing three and injuries others.
