Hezbollah chief thanks Iran, Iraq, Yemen for support

Hezbollah's secretary general Naim Qassem expressed his gratitude on Thursday to the leadership of Iran and the allied factions in Iraq and Yemen for what he described as their solidarity and support as Lebanon came under attack from Israel.

Qassem is delivering a major televised speech on return and reconstruction efforts in Lebanon, including financial compensation for families ranging from $8,000 to $14,000. 

This comes eight days after a fragile ceasefire deal was reached between Israel and Lebanon.
