Hezbollah Strikes Israeli Settlement, Pledges No Let-Up Until Zionist Aggression Ends
The Hezbollah resistance movement of Lebanon responded to the Israeli regime’s act of aggression by launching a rocket barrage towards an illegal settlement lying on the northern side of the occupied territories.
In a statement on Thursday, the movement said it had targeted the Manara settlement “in defense of Lebanon and its people, in response to the enemy’s violation of the ceasefire agreement, and after the resistance adhered to the ceasefire while the enemy did not.”
“This response will continue until the Israeli-American aggression against our country and our people ceases.”
Earlier, the Israeli regime targeted various areas throughout Lebanon, including the capital Beirut, killing at least 182 people and wounding 890 others, according to a preliminary toll offered by the country’s health ministry.
A subsequent toll put the number of the fatalities at 254 and those injured at 1,150.
The regime has carried out numerous violations against a 2024 ceasefire deal it signed with Hezbollah, under which Tel Aviv was expected to end deadly escalation towards Lebanon that had claimed thousands of lives.
Since February 28, when the regime and the United States began their latest bout of unprovoked aggression targeting Iran, Tel Aviv simultaneously ramped up its assaults on Lebanon.
On Wednesday, US President Donald Trump announced agreeing to a two-week lull in attacks on Iran. Trump said a 10-point proposal forwarded by the Islamic Republic serves as a “workable basis on which to negotiate and the main framework for these talks.”
The proposal underlines the need for cessation of aggression throughout the entire region, including in Lebanon, conditioning the Islamic Republic’s stopping its defensive strikes on a halt to aggressors’ regional atrocities.
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has announced that Iran was preparing a “regret-inducing response” to the renewed Israeli attacks on Lebanon, warning that any assault on Hezbollah was an assault on the Islamic Republic.
