Amid reports of a possible meeting between U.S. and Iranian leaders, former Israeli National Security Adviser Jacob Nagel says suggesting that conditions are ripe for such a meeting is “very dangerous.”
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei calls for “jihad, struggle and tireless effort,” and says “promotional, cultural and intellectual work” is needed to counter the U.S. peace “conspiracy.”
As tensions in the Persian Gulf continue to rise, commanders of the Lebanese terrorist group say it is “ready to initiate hostilities, if and when Tehran deems that necessary.”
The Israel prime minister’s remarks come after the Hezbollah leader warned that a war between the United States and Iran would put the Jewish state “on the brink of extinction.”
Feeling the pinch of U.S. sanctions against its sponsor Iran, Hezbollah once again turns to its supporters for financial aid.
Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah: “We can Invade the Galilee and Israel knows it; Israel will be crushed if it even thinks to invade southern Lebanon.”
The United States had already identified the risk of a Lebanese government with a pro-Iran majority. Several American officials visited Lebanon to warn Lebanese officials not to appoint Hezbollah politicians to top ministerial posts such as health minister, and also to warn about the ramifications of rapprochement with Iran.
Hezbollah declares its support for Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and condemns U.S. intervention in Venezuela’s affairs.
“Don’t make an error of judgement, and don’t lead the region towards war or a major clash,” said Hassan Nasrallah, citing that Hezbollah has “high-precision missiles” capable of striking anywhere in Israel.
Hezbollah Nasrallah made his first media appearance since November 2018 in an interview on Al Mayadeen TV, which aired also on Hezbollah’s Al-Manar TV (Lebanon) on Jan. 26, 2019.
Former Israel Defense Forces’ Chief of Staff Gadi Eizenkot said “Operation Northern Shield” exposed and neutralized terror tunnels dug under the Israel-Lebanon security fence.
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, 58, took over the terror group in 1992 after his predecessor was assassinated in an Israeli airstrike.
