Hezbollah Secretary-General Naim Qassem said those who believe Israeli attacks will continue until the group is disarmed should let Israel carry out its strikes, questioning why the issue concerned them.
In remarks Wednesday, Qassem accused Lebanese advocates of disarming Hezbollah of presenting what he described as a US and Israeli demand as a national Lebanese priority.
He said the entire world knew that Washington and Israel wanted Hezbollah disarmed and criticized those in Lebanon who insisted the demand originated domestically.
Qassem also called for expanding the regional resistance front to include more countries and populations, signaling his support for a broader alliance of groups opposed to Israel.
