Hassan Fadlallah, a member of Hezbollah's Loyalty to the Resistance Bloc in the Lebanese Parliament, affirmed that no amount of bombardments, air raids, intense shelling, intimidations, or threats by the Israelis will force a new equation on the battlefield.
In a speech during the funeral procession of Mustafa Mahmoud Jaber, who was martyred while carrying out his Resistance duty on the path of Al-Quds, in the town of Mheibib in southern Lebanon, Fadlallah said, "No matter how hard the enemy tries to harm the Lebanese people, it will not be able to establish a displacement balance [meaning the displacement of people from border areas] because our people will not submit."
He further reiterated that there would be no discussions or dialogue until the aggression on Gaza comes to an end.
Fadlallah affirmed that the sole option in the South of Lebanon is to strengthen all aspects of power, demonstrate unwavering commitment to the Resistance, and enforce deterrent measures against "Israel".
"This echoes the actions of the Resistance today, providing an initial response to the Israeli aggression on the southern suburbs of Beirut. These efforts serve to safeguard our nation, hindering the enemy's persistence in targeting," he added.

It is worth noting that Hezbollah targeted on Saturday one of "Israel's" two Air Traffic Control bases in northern occupied Palestine, with a barrage of 62 rockets, as an initial response to the assassination of Palestinian Resistance leader, martyr Sheikh Saleh al-Arouri, and his brothers in the Southern Suburb of Beirut.
At the time, a statement released by the Resistance said its fighters accurately and successfully targeted the air control base located atop Mount Jarmaq ("Meron"), the highest peak in the '48 occupied territories.

The attack was launched at exactly 7:50 am (local time) on Saturday morning, targeting the sole center for the management and monitoring of air traffic in northern occupied territories, the "Meron" Air Traffic Control Base. Hezbollah added that the occupation possesses no equivalent alternative to the bombarded facility.
The "Meron" Airbase organizes, coordinates, and manages all Air Force operations in the direction of Syria, Lebanon, Turkey, and Cyprus, as well as the northern areas of the eastern basin of the Mediterranean Sea. The base is also a main center for Israeli electronic warfare in the aforementioned directions, and it houses elite Israeli officers and soldiers.
"Meron" base entered the long list of Israeli targets struck by the Resistance in Northern Occupied #Palestine.
