Nasrallah says violence in Red Sea, Lebanon border, Iraq all ‘tied to one thing’ – Gaza

Hezbollah terror group leader Hassan Nasrallah says in a televised address that the US must understand that all of the violence in the region is tied to Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.

Nasrallah says that envoys sent to Lebanon had been seeking to “extinguish” the Lebanon front by delivering a warning that if the group did not stop its attacks “Israel would launch a war on Lebanon.” He did not identify the envoys.

He says the aim of the Lebanon front is to “stop the aggression against Gaza.”

The United States should understand “that the security of the Red Sea and calm on Lebanon’s front, the situation in Iraq, and all developments in the region is tied to one thing: to stop the aggression against Gaza,” Nasrallah adds.

“You are trying to deal with the consequences and the results, go fix the reason,” he says.

Nasrallah was speaking to commemorate the death of a top Hezbollah commander, Wissam Tawil, who was killed in south Lebanon last week, the most senior Hezbollah commander to die in three months of hostilities with Israel.
