BEIRUT: Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem has stated that Israel will not be able to sustain its presence in Lebanon, warning of a strong response to any violation of ceasefire or wartime understandings in the region.
In a recent statement, Qassem said that Lebanon would respond decisively to any breach of its sovereignty, emphasizing that the situation on the ground remains highly sensitive amid ongoing regional instability.
He further claimed that Iran has grown stronger following recent developments and the killing of its supreme leader, suggesting that recent events have not weakened Tehran but instead reinforced its position in the region.
Qassem also accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of attempting to persuade US President Donald Trump to support aggressive actions against Iran, though he argued that such efforts had failed to achieve meaningful results.
His remarks come amid heightened tensions in the Middle East, with competing claims and warnings exchanged between regional actors over Lebanon, Iran, and broader security concerns.
