Resistance won’t allow Israel to accomplish its objectives in Gaza, says Hezbollah official

A senior Hezbollah official says the Lebanese resistance fighters will never allow the occupying Israeli regime to attain its objectives in the Gaza Strip, stressing that resumption of Israeli attacks in the enclave comes on orders of the United States.

“The Gaza war has been an American onslaught ever since it broke out [on October 7]. All positions of US statesmen and developments unfolding on the ground attest to such a fact. Washington is not simply complicit in the Zionist occupiers’ aggression against Palestinians, but it is rather the key decision-maker of such atrocities,” Vice President of the Executive Council of Hezbollah Sheikh Ali Damoush said.

He made the remarks in a sermon to worshipers at the weekly Friday Prayers in the Lebanese capital city of Beirut.

He added that the occupying Israeli regime is nothing but a pawn in the hands of the US to advance its agendas in the West Asia region.

Damoush stressed that “Washington’s efforts to burnish its image before the world public opinion by pretending to avoid air strikes against civilians and providing aid supplies to Gaza will not fool anyone, and cannot help US officials duck responsibility in the ongoing carnage.”

War in Gaza recorded striking picture of resistance front’s victory: Hezbollah official

A senior Hezbollah official says while the war in Gaza presented an image of Israel’s humiliation and failure, it recorded a striking image of the resistance front’s victory.

World nations must openly and strongly express their opinions this time, and put pressure on Americans to stop this insane war, the high-ranking Hezbollah official said.

“Nowadays, everyone must take on their moral and humanitarian responsibility in the face of crimes being committed against civilians in Gaza. Resistance factions in Gaza and across the region will never allow Israel to achieve its objectives. The Axis of Resistance will also never allow the United States and Israel to have the upper hand in the region,” Sheikh Damoush said.

The top Hezbollah official emphasized that the resilience and steadfastness of Gazans rendered Israel unable to obtain any military gains in the first round of aggression, stating that the regime failed miserably in its ground incursion into Gaza.

The Zionist enemy had initially set goals for the war in Gaza, the most important of which were the destruction of Hamas resistance movement and release of captives, but it could not reach any of them, Sheikh Damoush highlighted.

Resistance will emerge victorious in Gaza war against Israel: Hezbollah chief tells Iran FM

The Hezbollah chief and the Iranian foreign minister discuss the latest developments in the region during a meeting in the Lebanese capital of Beirut.

“The Zionist regime, which failed to achieve any of its declared goals in the first seven weeks of the Gaza war, will likewise not reap anything this time, no matter how long the onslaught would last.

“The resistance front has not sustained any damage in its military structure, remains strong and capable, and continues its battles determinedly and mightily. The entire Axis of Resistance is standing by the side of Gazans, while the Israeli army is frustrated and has no confidence in achieving its goals,” the top Hezbollah official said.

Israel launched the war on Gaza on October 7 after the territory’s Palestinian resistance movements waged the surprise Operation al-Aqsa Storm against the occupying entity in response to the Israeli regime’s decades-long campaign of bloodletting and devastation against Palestinians.

The Israeli aggression has so far killed more than 15,000 Palestinians, most of them women and children.
