The leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah met with senior officials from Hamas and Islamic Jihad this Wednesday (25), said a statement from the Iran-backed Islamic movement.
Nasrallah met with the deputy head of Hamas, Saleh Al-Arouri and with the secretary general of Islamic Jihad, Ziad Nakhla, the statement said, but did not say where the meeting took place.
“An assessment was made of what the resistance axis parties must do at this sensitive stage to achieve a real victory for the resistance in the Gaza Strip, to stop the treacherous and brutal aggression against our people,” the statement said.
Hezbollah’s press office also released a handwritten letter from Nasrallah praising those who died fighting against Israel – his first statement since the start of the war.
Hezbollah, which has its main base on the Israel-Lebanon border, could become an unpredictable player in the Hamas-Israel war.
Hezbollah and Israel have been involved in low-intensity attacks since the start of the war, raising concerns that a broader regional conflict could spill over.
In Lebanon, the group is officially considered a “resistance” group tasked with confronting Israel, which Beirut classifies as an enemy state. However, much of the Western world has designated Hezbollah as a terrorist organization.
