Iran FM: Do not underestimate Hezbollah’s ability to defend Lebanon
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has hailed Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement for its resistance against the Israeli regime.
Araghchi said that no one should underestimate Hezbollah’s ability to defend the country against any Israeli aggression.
The top Iranian diplomat made the comments on Tuesday on the sidelines of the 2024 United Nations General Assembly in New York.
Araghchi said Hezbollah is “more than capable of flattening the bases and colonies of the Israeli regime.”
He noted that Hezbollah’s true power is rooted in its inner capacities and the popular support it enjoys among the Lebanese people.
Araghchi called on the Arab and Islamic countries to fulfill their duty by standing up against Israel.
On Monday, the Israeli regime’s military carried out over 330 raids in more than 117 Lebanese towns and cities, particularly in the south and Beqaa regions. At least 569 people — including 50 children, and 94 women — were killed while 5,000 were wounded.
