Nasrallah: Soleimani killing launches ‘new era in the region’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleHezbollah head Hassan Nasrallah says Qassem Soleimani’s killing begins “a new phase” in the region.
Friday marks a “date separating two phases in the region … it is the start of a new phase and a new history not just for Iran or Iraq but the whole region,” he says in a speech broadcast from Beirut.
He insists his side can’t lose, because it sees death as another kind of victory.
“We do not get defeated… Even when we get martyred we triumph.”
Trump also “doesn’t respect international law,” Nasrallah avers.
