Hezbollah cancels event in south Beirut after Israeli strike: statement
Hezbollah says it has canceled an event planned for later today in Beirut’s southern suburbs, a stronghold of the terror group, after an Israeli strike hit the area.
“In view of the Zionist aggression on the southern suburbs, it was decided to cancel the Quds Day event,” a statement says, referring to an annual commemoration launched by Iran in support of Palestinians. The site of the planned gathering, at which Hezbollah chief Naim Qassem was due to give a televised address, is located several hundred meter from where the strike hit.
