Islamabad, Sep 20: Hezbollah Chief Denounces Israeli Attacks as Warplane Sonic Booms Rattle Beirut
In a televised speech, he stated that these attacks, which resulted in 37 fatalities and approximately 3,000 injuries, represent a significant and unprecedented military blow to both Hezbollah and Lebanon.
Nasrallah’s comments came amid reports of sonic booms from Israeli warplanes over Beirut, highlighting the tense atmosphere.
He asserted that the scale of the assault has overwhelmed Lebanese hospitals and inflicted considerable damage on Hezbollah’s operational capabilities. While Israel has not officially responded, security sources suggest that these attacks may have been orchestrated by its Mossad spy agency.
Nasrallah’s remarks emphasize the heightened conflict and the serious implications of these incidents for regional stability and security.
In his speech, Hassan Nasrallah described the recent Israeli attacks as potentially unprecedented acts of violence, stating that they “crossed all red lines.” He condemned the targeting of civilians and infrastructure, asserting that such actions could be classified as war crimes or declarations of war.
Nasrallah emphasized that these attacks reflect a complete disregard for international norms and morality.
As he spoke, the sound of Israeli warplanes creating sonic booms resonated through Beirut, intensifying the already heightened sense of urgency regarding the threat of an all-out conflict.
Israel confirmed that its aircraft targeted southern Lebanon, while Hezbollah reported that airstrikes resumed in the border region later in the day, marking an escalation in tensions between the two entities.
