The head of Lebanon’s Hezbollah terror group says that Israel’s “aggression” that killed several civilians in southern Lebanon was intentional.
“The enemy could have avoided killing civilians in southern Lebanon,” says Hassan Nasrallah.
The terror chief claims in a televised speech that his group’s response to Israel’s attacks would be an “increase in resistance.”
