Hezbollah will choose its new leader at the first opportunity, the organization’s deputy leader says

The deputy leader of Iran-backed Lebanon’s Hezbollah, Naim Qassem, said today that the organization will choose a successor to its secretary general Hassan Nasrallah, who was killed in an Israeli strike in Beirut last Friday, September 27, “at the first opportunity.” ” and that he will continue the fight against Israel. N. Qassem said the group was continuing its operations, working according to plans already drawn up, and described its attacks so far as “the minimum”, adding that the battle could be long. In a televised speech, Hezbollah’s deputy leader also said Nasrallah was killed along with four other people in Friday’s strike and not accompanied by 20-plus comrades, as Israel had claimed. He said Hezbollah was ready to repel a ground attack by the Israeli army and would continue its fight against Israel in support of the Palestinians in Gaza.
