Hezbollah-Linked Bloc Condemns U.S. Extortion Demands
According to webangah News Agency, Hassan Ezzeddine, a member of Hezbollah’s Loyalty to the resistance parliamentary bloc, stated: “The weapons of the Resistance are a national and domestic matter. We will never yield to the extortionist pressures of america and the Zionist regime.”
He added: “Lebanon, particularly its southern regions, remains under constant threat of aggression by the Zionist regime, which directly targets regional stability. Today, Palestine has become the global benchmark for distinguishing right from wrong.”
Ezzeddine stressed: “The Resistance’s experience isn’t limited to today or yesterday-it’s a deeply rooted struggle dating back to 1982. Lebanon now needs resistance more than ever before. The liberation of southern lebanon in 2000 marked the first genuine Arab victory against the Zionist enemy through resistance.”
The statement comes after a U.S. envoy to Syria previously claimed that any Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanon would only occur following disarmament of lebanese resistance forces.
