Hezbollah Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem stressed on Thursday that the enemy sought to crush the resistance through its aggression but was met with the “Battle of The Formidable in Might”.
In a televised speech, Sheikh Qassem said, “For 64 days, we endured sacrifices, pain, martyrs, and injuries with patience, resilience, and reliance on Allah.”
According to Sheikh Qassem, three key factors contributed to Allah’s victory for us in this battle:
1. The presence and steadfastness of martyrdom-seeking fighters on the battlefield.
2. The blood of the martyrs, especially that of His Eminence Sayyed Nasrallah, which inspired the fighters to persevere.
3. The restoration of leadership and control structures within the party, enabling effective management of the “Battle of The Formidable in Might”.
Hezbollah Leader hailed the steadfastness of the displaced Lebanese people for their contribution to the victory, detailing Hezbollah plan to fund the reconstruction and thanking the Iranian-Iraqi-Yemeni financial support in this regard.
Sheikh Qassem stressed that those whose houses were completely destroyed will receive a 14-thousand-dollar pay in order to purchase a new furniture and rent a house for a year.
His eminence also underlined the Lebanese government in raising the debris, treating the infrastructure problems and contributing to the reconstruction project.
Sheikh Qassem pointed out that the legendary resilience of the fighters astonished the world, displaying unparalleled courage and bravery on the frontlines.
“We achieved victory because the enemy failed to accomplish its objectives, marking their defeat. Our resistance remains steadfast, will endure, and will shine even brighter.”
We agreed to the ceasefire mechanism outlined by Resolution 1701, which is not a new or standalone agreement, he added.
Sheikh Qassem noted that Resolution 1701 mandates “Israel’s” withdrawal and prohibits armed presence south of the Litani River, adding that the provisions outlined in Resolution 1701 include mechanisms for Lebanon to reclaim its borders within the specified timeframe.
“Israel has committed over 60 violations of the ceasefire agreement, and the government is responsible for addressing those breaches. The Lebanese state is accountable for monitoring Israeli violations, while the resistance provides an opportunity to ensure the success of the ceasefire agreement.”
Sheikh Qassem indicated that “Israel” has no influence on our internal relationships or our ties with the Lebanese Army, adding that Hezbollah’s strength stems from supporting the rights of Palestinians and Lebanese to liberate their land.”
We will evaluate the crises and war we endured, drawing lessons to improve and advance in all fields, Sheikh Qassem said.
His eminence expressed gratitude to those who hosted the displaced, to the various entities offering support, whether governmental or civilian, and to the countries that provided aid.
Meanwhile, Sheikh Qassem said that the aggression against Syria is backed by America and ‘Israel’, adding that the Takfiri groups in Syria were tools serving ‘Israel’ and America.
Hezbollah will stand alongside Syria to thwart this aggression, Sheikh Qassem affirmed.
“We face a dangerous expansionist Israeli project, and I call on you to support the resistance against ‘Israel’. Takfiri groups aim to shift Syria from its position of resistance to one that serves the Israeli enemy.”
