Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleHezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah accuses Islamic State of carrying out a new Nakba, and vows that groups will “stand in their way.”
“The Islamic State takes pride in killing women and children in Baghdad,” Nasrallah says, according to Lebanese website naharnet.com.
“There is a great difference between the current Nakba and the one of 1948. There are groups that currently exist that will stand in the way of this new Nakba.”
