Hezbollah’s deputy chief Sheikh Naim Qassem

Beirut, June 3 (RHC)-- The Lebanese Islamic resistance movement Hezbollah has warned the Israeli regime against expanding the scope of its aggression against Lebanon, asserting that they are impervious to the regime’s threats and that the enemies are lined up in crosshairs.

The warning was issued by Hezbollah’s deputy chief Sheikh Naim Qassem in an address to a ceremony commemorating four of the movement’s members martyred by Israeli strikes held in Beirut's southern suburbs over the weekend.

The Hezbollah official said that the Israeli regime has during the past eight months refused to carry out its threat to expand the scope of the war on Lebanon, but that the movement has prepared itself for such a scenario and is ready to give a strong response to such aggressions.

The Hezbollah official said nothing can stop the movement’s operations in support of Gaza, and that the attacks will stop only when the fighting ceases completely in Gaza.  

The Hezbollah official also said the Israeli invasion of Rafah in southern Gaza will have no achievement and that the regime will not achieve its goal of "eliminating the resistance" and securing the release of its captives.

Hezbollah has been launching operations against the Israeli regime since October 8, a day after the regime launched its genocidal onslaught on Gaza.  The movement has fired hundreds of missiles and drones into the Israeli-occupied territories near Lebanon in what observers have described as a campaign to degrade the regime’s military and espionage capabilities.
