Senior Hezbollah official Sayyed Hashem Safieddine on Sunday warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that “this battle is not only Gaza’s battle,” hours after Hezbollah attacked Israeli military posts in the occupied Shebaa Farms.
“The responsibility obliges all the sons of our nation not to be neutral and we are not neutral,” Safieddine said during a pro-Palestine rally in Beirut’s southern suburbs.
“The resistance sent a message this morning in Kfarshouba to say that it is our right to target the enemy that is still occupying our land and the Israelis must read this message well,” he added, referring to the Shebaa Farms attack.
“There is a message to the Americans and Israelis that what happened in Gaza means that your protracted foolishness and underestimation have led you to the Al-Aqsa Flood (Operation), and if you go further today you will witness the flood of the entire nation, not only al-Aqsa,” Safieddine cautioned.
He also warned that “the scene of the storming of settlements around Gaza coupled with rocket shelling will one day be repeated dozens-fold stronger, from Lebanon and from all the areas that are adjacent to occupied Palestine.”
