Hezbollah vows to fire more rockets until Israel stops air strikes and ground invasion in Lebanon

Hezbollah’s acting chief has warned the group plans to fire rockets into more areas of Israel until the Netanyahu government stops its air strikes and ends its ground invasion of Lebanon.

“I am telling the Israeli home front: The solution is a ceasefire,” Naim Qassem said in a speech broadcast live on Tuesday, adding that the group would not be defeated by the ongoing bombardment of its strongholds as well as the killing of its leadership.

Qassem said Hezbollah is focused on “hurting the enemy”, signaling that it would ramp up attacks further south in Israel.

Qassem has led the group since September 27 of this year, when its longtime leader, Hassan Nasrallah, was assassinated in an Israeli air strike in Beirut’s southern suburbs. the

He added that a ceasefire in the besieged and bombarded Gaza Strip is the “solution” to end the escalating conflict.

“We cannot separate Lebanon from Palestine, or Palestine from the world,” he said.
