Nasrallah: Gaza support fronts will be strongly present during Ramadan

Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah on Wednesday said that the fronts that support Gaza in the region “will be strongly present during this holy month” of Ramadan.

“The resistance has so far deterred the enemy from going to a war in Lebanon,” Nasrallah added, in a speech marking Ramadan.

“The Israeli army has been exhausted in Gaza, Lebanon and the West Bank,” Nasrallah said, noting that “the Israeli defense minister and army chief have said that their soldiers have incurred hefty losses on the northern front” with Lebanon.

“Israel has been keeping its losses on the northern front under wraps,” Nasrallah stressed.

“This front is pressuring the enemy on several military and economic levels,” he added.

“The support fronts in Lebanon and Yemen will continue and the Islamic resistance in Iraq will continue sending drones and missiles into Israel,” Nasrallah went on to say, calling on the U.S. administration to “halt the aggression and the war” on Gaza.

He added: “Who can believe that Biden is incapable of stopping the war? He can do so by stopping the supply of weapons or refraining from blocking U.N. Security Council resolutions.”

Addressing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Nasrallah said: “Even if you go to Rafah, you have lost the war.”

“Despite all the massacres, Gaza's people will not surrender to you,” he emphasized, noting that “the people of Gaza are still embracing the resistance.”

“Who are you negotiating with if Hamas has been defeated?” Nasrallah wondered.

Adding that Hamas is “negotiating on behalf of the entire axis of resistance,” Nasrallah noted that Netanyahu is “blocking any results from the negotiations.”

“It is not true that the ball is in Hamas' court,” Nasrallah underlined, while stating that “stopping the aggression is a reasonable objective of the negotiations.”
