Senior Hezbollah Official: We Will Not Cut Ties with Iran

Mahmoud Al-Qomati, deputy head of Hezbollah’s political office, told Qatar’s Al jazeera ⁢network that the movement will maintain its links with Tehran as long as the Islamic⁢ Republic of Iran continues to support and respect hezbollah,​ according to​ webangah News Agency citing Mehr News Agency.

Referring ​to developments in southern Lebanon, he said ‌that after failing to‌ eliminate resistance in Palestine, the Israeli regime has escalated tensions ⁢along Lebanon’s southern borders.

He⁢ emphasized ⁢that the occupying regime seeks to ‍impose its⁣ will‍ and dominance over the⁣ region, but resistance will not yield under this pressure.

Al-Qomati added that Hezbollah‍ will never lay down its arms or deviate from its path, even if Israeli pressures increase.

The Hezbollah​ official described‍ the movement as a “national and Islamic resistance​ in​ Lebanon”‌ and⁢ stressed ‌that ​its main priority is defending and protecting ⁣Lebanon.

He also acknowledged Hezbollah’s relationship with Iran but stated that in light of threats​ concerning a “Greater Israel” posed ‍by Netanyahu, ‌they serve as a deterrent power ensuring national security⁤ for Arab ‌countries.
