Hezbollah’s Naim Qassem: We are confronting a new threat in the Middle East, represented by Israel

Hezbollah deputy leader Sheikh Naim Qassem, in seemingly pre-recorded video, said that Israel’s strike on the group’s leadership ‘was severe.’

“We felt deep pain after the blow to our leadership,” he said.

The Hezbollah deputy said they will target central, north and south Israel.

“Since Israel has attacked anywhere in Lebanon, we have the right to attack anywhere in Israel,” Qassem said.

“We will focus on targeting the israeli military and its centers and barracks.
