Hezbollah Faction: Those Believing Resistance Has Weakened Are Deluded
according to the English section of webangah News Agency, citing Al-Manar via Mehr News Agency, Muhammad Raad, leader of Hezbollah’s Loyalty to Resistance Bloc, emphasized that resolving Lebanon’s current crisis requires greater regional involvement and rationality.
He added: “We must defend our national sovereignty and dignity and address our problems free from American, israeli, and foreign dictations.”
Raad stated: “Certain parties seek to exploit these pressures to impose internal equations benefiting themselves while capitalizing on Israeli aggression and US support. They falsely believe that the resistance has weakened and can no longer stand firm. This is a complete misconception.”
He noted: “When the ceasefire took effect in November 2024, the resistance held the upper hand on the ground. The Zionist enemy failed in its 66-day ground offensives against Lebanon. Ten days after this ceasefire,we witnessed developments in Syria that shifted regional dynamics. some individuals attempted to emerge from obscurity by exploiting this situation.”
Raad underscored: “The government’s decision labeling all weapons outside state control as illegitimate contradicts both the Taif Agreement and current realities within Lebanon. Thousands of martyrs who lost their lives at the hands of Israel did not carry illegal arms.”
