The Deputy Secretary General of Hezbollah, Naim Qassemdeclared on Monday that the Shiite group is “prepared for a land confrontation with the enemy” and has assured that Israel is “incapable” of destroying its military capabilities despite the massive bombing campaign that began a week ago.
In this sense, he has assured that the Shia militia will choose the successor of the assassinated Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah “as soon as possible.” the fight against Israel will continue. So far, their attacks have been “minimal,” he said, adding that the battle could last a long time. The Israeli army killed the leader of the Hezbollah party militia, Hasan Nasrallah, in a bombing on the outskirts of Beirut.
“We are fully prepared and we will continue,” Hezbollah’s number two said in a televised speech, the first by a leader of the organization since Nasrallah’s assassination last Friday. Likewise, he declared that the group will be “victorious,” although he specified that Hezbollah will need “a little patience and material” to respond to a further escalation of violence against Israel.
The Israeli army continued its massive bombing campaign against the main strongholds of the Lebanese Shia group Hezbollah this Monday, bombing the heart of Beirut for the first time since the start of the Israeli offensive against Lebanon.
For a week now, Israel has been carrying out an unprecedented bombing campaign against Lebanon. This Sunday alone, at least 105 people were killed in an intensive day of bombardment by Israel, which the Lebanese government says has left more than 1,000 dead and more than 6,000 injured in just over a week.
