The Shiite organization Hezbollah considers it a correct decision for the Palestinian radical group Hamas to launch the Masjid al-Aqsa Flood Operation, which resulted in the militants occupying Israel and taking hostages. This was stated by Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. His words guide the way Al Jazeera.
“What happened was necessary to get the world to talk about the Palestinian issue again. Operation Al-Aqsa Flood was 100% designed and implemented by Palestinians. Its success was achieved through absolute secrecy,” Nasrallah said.
According to the Hezbollah leader, thousands of Palestinian prisoners have been held in Israeli prisons for many years, while Gazans have been under siege for nearly 20 years. At the same time, as Nasrallah stated, the Palestine issue has fallen off the world agenda.
Hassan Nasrallah, Secretary General of the Lebanese Hezbollah Party, speaks as the Palestinian-Israeli conflict escalates. Lebanese officials have previously highlightedthat they did not want to go to war. The country’s Prime Minister, Najib Mikati, said that if Lebanon starts fighting, the Middle East will be thrown into chaos.
Formerly head of Hezbollah statedHe said the situation in Palestine has been “very difficult” in recent years because of the “stupid” and “extreme” government in Israel.
