Sheikh Naim Kassem: The resistance of the Lebanese people thwarted Israel's settlement plan.
Secretary General of Hezbollah Lebanon:
🔹 Israel's expansion plan aimed at weakening Lebanon and paving the way for new settlements was thwarted by the opposition of the people and the resistance forces.
🔹If it weren't for the resistance and the honorable individuals, the enemy would have advanced all the way to the heart of Sidon. The main reason for all crises is the nature of Israel itself, not the existence of resistance.
🔹 The unparalleled resilience of the people and the resistance forces, along with active diplomacy and regional agreements such as the Islamabad Agreement and Iran's efforts to defuse tensions, were the two main factors in ensuring strength and stability against attackers.
