0:46Now PlayingIran-backed Hezbollah’s leader said the group’s battle against Israel has entered a new phase and vowed to respond following the killing of a top commander of the militant group in Beirut.
Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah said Israel’s assassination of his senior adviser Fuad Shukr in the Lebanese capital on Tuesday and the subsequent killing of Hamas’ political chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran crossed his red lines, saying the conflict now is an “open battle on all fronts.”
“We are now facing a major battle that has surpassed the idea of support fronts,” he said, reiterating the only way to stop escalation in the region would be for Israel to end the war in Gaza.
Nasrallah stopped short of describing the killings as an act of war and said his group fights both in anger and with “logic and wisdom,” somewhat in line with the group’s declared intention not to widen the fighting with Israel.
