The spokesperson for the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, Abu Obeida, praised the operations carried out by the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon against zionist forces, commending what he described as a determined response to ongoing aggression against Lebanon and the wider region.
In a statement circulated by Hamas-affiliated media outlets, Abu Obeida hailed what he called the “heroic act” of the resistance fighters confronting Israeli forces and carrying out strikes against targets deep inside zionist-occupied territory.
“We commend the heroic act carried out by the fighters of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon in confronting the aggressive Zionist forces and inflicting heavy losses on them, as well as striking strategic targets deep inside the entity,” Abu Obeida said.
He added that the Lebanese resistance fighters were exercising their legitimate right to defend their land and national sovereignty in the face of continued zionist aggression.
“We express our support for the resistance fighters as they exercise their right to defend their land and the sovereignty of their country in the face of an aggression that has not ceased for a single moment,” he said.
Honoring Resistance Martyrs
Abu Obeida also expressed condolences for the victims of the war on Lebanon and wished a swift recovery to those wounded.
“We extend our prayers for mercy upon the martyrs of our brotherly Lebanon, wish a speedy recovery to the wounded, and safety to all its people,” he stated.
The spokesperson also paid tribute to the martyred leader of Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, describing his decision to support Gaza as a moral and courageous stance taken in defense of the Palestinian people.
“On this occasion, we also remember His Eminence the martyred Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, who made a moral and courageous decision to stand alongside Gaza and its people, offering his soul along with many of his brothers on the path to al-Quds,” the statement read.
Unity Call
Abu Obeida also called on the peoples of the Arab and Islamic worlds to unite in confronting zionist plans to expand the war across the region.
“We call on the peoples of our nation to unite and stand as one in confronting the schemes of the Zionist enemy and its premeditated intentions to expand the aggression to reach more Arab and Islamic countries,” he said.
Resistance Front
The remarks come as confrontations continue along the Lebanon-occupied Palestine border, where the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon has carried out operations against zionist military sites and positions.
Clashes resumed earlier this month following the US-zionist assault on Iran on February 28, which triggered a broader regional escalation.
Since then, the Lebanese front has reactivated as part of the wider confrontation, with resistance groups in the region framing their operations as part of a unified effort to confront zionist aggression and support Gaza.
