The secretary general of the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement says the assassination of a senior leader of the Palestinian resistance group Hamas in the Lebanese capital of Beirut was an attack by the Israeli regime.
In a televised speech delivered on Wednesday, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah offered his condolences on the martyrdom of the deputy head of Hamas politburo, Saleh al-Arouri, and five of his comrades who were killed a day earlier in a drone strike on their office in southern Beirut.
Nasrallah called Arouri “a brother” and “a grand commander” and said his assassination on the Lebanese soil was “a blatant attack” by the Zionist regime.
