— 🇱🇧/🇸🇾 NEW: Hezbollah issued the following statement, commenting on the state of affairs within Syria:

“The Israeli entity’s occupation of more Syrian territories and the destruction of its military capabilities is a dangerous and strongly condemned aggression. The Security Council, the international community, and Arab and Islamic countries bear responsibility for rejecting and ending it and protecting the Syrian people at a sensitive and pivotal stage in their history.

We have always warned against Israeli ambitions in the entire region and resisted them to prevent the occupation from achieving its goals. We have reiterated that the aggression on Gaza is a war of extermination and a starting point for changing the face of the region and ending the Palestinian cause.

The complete silence of the Arab, Islamic and international community towards the criminal aggression against Syria, with unlimited American support, and the failure to take practical measures to confront this aggression and support the Palestinian people and their legitimate rights, has led to Zionist excesses and encroachment on the countries of the region.

All steps must be taken to prevent the Israeli entity from achieving its goals, and not to remain silent or watch this brutal aggression against Syria and its people. What is happening in Syria today on the popular and political levels, and the resulting internal and external political choices, are the exclusive right of the Syrian people, independent of any external influences and pressures.

We hope that Syria will settle on the choices of its people, achieve its renaissance, and be in a position of rejecting the Israeli occupation, preventing foreign interference in its affairs.

We will remain a supporter of Syria and its people in their right to build their future and confront their enemy, the usurping Israeli entity.”
