Iran, Hezbollah condemn Israeli attacks on Lebanon
29 March 2025 20:29 GMT
Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem said Saturday that he could not accept continued Israeli attacks on Lebanon, a day after the first strike on Beirut since a November ceasefire.
"This aggression must end. Israel... bombed Beirut's southern suburbs for the first time since the truce... we cannot allow this to continue," Qassem said in a televised address.
Iran also condemned the Israeli strikes on Beirut, calling it a “blatant violation” of the ceasefire.
“The excuses made by the Zionist regime for justifying the aggression against Lebanon are totally baseless and unjustifiable,” Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei said in a statement.
