Qassem: No war on Lebanon in near future
Hezbollah deputy chief Sheikh Naim Qassem has reassured that there will be no broad Israeli war on Lebanon in the near future.
“The possibilities of expanding the war are absent in the near future,” Qassem said in an interview with Russia’s Sputnik radio station.
“But Hezbollah is prepared for the worst scenarios and it does not build its military stance on political analyses but rather on information and the outcome of the battlefield,” Qassem added.
Domestically, Hezbollah’s number two said that some in Lebanon are “dreaming of a war aimed at annoying or weakening Hezbollah.”
“I believe that they will see annoying dreams, because reality is not affected by their visions and they don’t have any impact on the ground. There is a strong resistance that is confronting the Israeli enemy, it will triumph and they will be more annoyed,” Qassem went on to say.
