00:00Sheikh Naeem Qasim, Deputy Secretary-General of Hezbollah,

00:29issued a stern warning to Israel during a ceremony in Beirut on Friday cautioning against

00:35any expansion of Israeli aggression on Lebanese soil.

00:39This comes as hostilities between Hezbollah and Israeli forces have intensified following

00:44the targeted killing of senior Hezbollah commander Sami Abdullah, known as Abu Talib, and three

00:49others in an Israeli airstrike on Tuesday.

00:52Sheikh Qasim emphasized that Hezbollah had retaliated by striking several sites within

00:57the occupied territories, including military barracks and combat positions, deliberately

01:02avoiding civilian areas.

01:04He warned that any further expansion of Israeli aggression, regardless of scale, would be

01:08met with a decisive response that would inflict significant losses on Israel.

01:13You saw how he responded to the assassination of Commander Abu Talib and his companions.

01:18Qasim remarked, highlighting Hezbollah's commitment to defending Lebanese sovereignty and responding

01:23forcefully to Israeli provocations.

01:26Earlier on June 5, Sheikh Naeem Qasim warned that Israel would face severe consequences

01:32if it expands the war with Lebanon, stating that Hezbollah is prepared for full-scale

01:38war.

01:39He had warned that Israel will face devastation and destruction if it moves to expand the

01:44war against Lebanon.

01:46Western's group is ready for the battle and will not allow Israel to secure any victories,

01:51Sheikh Qasim had warned.

01:53The recent escalation began on October 7, 2023, when Israel launched an extensive military

01:59campaign against the Gaza Strip, resulting in the deaths of approximately 37,300 Palestinians,

02:07predominantly women and children.

02:10In solidarity with Gaza, Hezbollah has conducted near-daily rocket attacks on Israeli positions.

02:16In its largest assault since October 7, Hezbollah launched around 30 drones and 150 rockets

02:23at Israeli targets on Wednesday, directly in response to Abdullah's killing.

02:28This intensification of conflict follows Hezbollah's historical resistance against Israel, notably

02:34in the wars of 2000 and 2006, where the movement successfully repelled Israeli advances.

02:39The ongoing violence has underscored the fragile stability in the region and the potential

02:44for broader conflict.

02:45Sheikh Qasim's remarks reflect Hezbollah's readiness to escalate its military response

02:50and should as well continue its incursions into Lebanese territory.
