The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon – Hezbollah affirmed that the continued zionist aggression against the country over the past fifteen months cannot persist without response, stressing that confrontation remains a legitimate and defensive right in the face of ongoing violations.
Below we publish the entire statement:
—
For the past fifteen months, the ‘Israeli’ aggression against Lebanon has continued with killings, destruction, and demolition, in all forms of criminality. All political and diplomatic efforts have failed to curb this aggression and compel it to implement the ceasefire agreement and its requirements.
We have repeatedly warned that aggression without a response cannot continue, and the operations of assassination and destruction cannot continue. What is required is to put an end to the aggression by all available means, with decisive and effective action.
The ongoing aggression cannot be justified by pretexts. Confrontation is a legitimate right, and what the Islamic Resistance has done is a response to the aggression, primarily for national considerations, and a right to bring security and stability to our people and our regions throughout Lebanon.
The response of the Islamic Resistance to a military outpost in the usurping entity is a defensive act, a legitimate right, and those concerned, interested, and responsible should work to stop the aggression as the direct cause of everything happening in Lebanon.
