Hezbollah: "We will confront US and Israeli aggression"

Hezbollah announced it would confront the aggression of Israel and the US, following the death of Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The head of the Shiite Lebanese organization, Naim Qassem, stated that they would fulfill their duty by confronting the attack, regardless of the sacrifices.

Hezbollah has not intervened since the start of the US and Israeli strikes against Iran. This afternoon, they are organizing a gathering in the southern suburbs of Beirut in support of Iran.

Naim Qassem, who succeeded Hassan Nasrallah, who was killed in an Israeli strike in Beirut in September 2024, noted that the assassination of Khamenei represents the culmination of the crime.

Meanwhile, a spokesman for the North Korean Foreign Ministry called the strikes by Israel and the US against Iran illegal, saying they reveal Washington's gangster-like nature.
