Geagea says Hezbollah fully led by Iran after Nasrallah's killing
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea accused the Lebanese government of becoming "a rescue committee" instead of a state and of allowing Iran to fight its battles from Lebanon.
In remarks published Friday in Asharq al-Awsat newspaper, Geagea said that Hezbollah has dragged Lebanon to where it is now, while Lebanese officials were "loafing around" instead of calling for the implementation of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701.
"The government must convene and take a decision to deploy the army and implement Resolution 1701," Geagea said, adding that after the killing of Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah in an Israeli strike, Hezbollah is now totally led by Iran.
"The decisions are now completely Iranian and Iran will continue its fight until the last (Hezbollah) fighter."
