Hezbollah has declared an escalation,

which it called the“ devouring storm,”

showing no concern for what this deadly sin it is committing will lead to.

While the southern suburb is burning,

Hezbollah continues its crimes against the Lebanese people,

for it has not only turned the homes of innocent civilians into missile

depots and human shields in cold blood, but its rockets are also falling on

the heads of the Lebanese themselves.

Our strikes in the southern suburb aim to uproot

the Iranian killing machine that the party has planted among civilians.

Hezbollah does not care about

Lebanon’s security or the lives of the Lebanese.

It is ready to sacrifice Beirut for the sake of the agendas of the mullahs’ regime.

We continue to work forcefully to dismantle this terrorism,

and the responsibility rests entirely on those who pawn this country

to foreign delusions. Therefore, we call on every Lebanese who is near Hezbollah

fighters or

sites to evacuate them immediately,

to preserve their safety and their lives.
