Hezbollah head Nasrallah meets with Iran foreign minister on Gaza

Iran’s foreign minister has discussed the volatile situation in the Middle East with the leader of the Hezbollah terror group.

A Hezbollah statement says Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian and Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah met in Beirut early Friday to discuss “the Israeli aggression on Gaza and the brutal crimes committed against its people.”

There have been concerns that the Iran-backed and heavily-armed Hezbollah might join the war with Israel. Sporadic acts of violence have been reported over the past days along the tense Lebanon-Israel border.

Amirabdollahian was in Iraq on Thursday before coming to Lebanon, and he’s scheduled to head to Syria later Friday.
