Naim Qassem says Hezbollah 'do not fight on anyone's behalf'

Responding to claims that Hezbollah fights on Iran's behalf, Secretary General Naim Qassem said that "we do not fight on anyone's behalf, nor for anyone’s project. We fight for our project. Our project is the protection of Lebanon".

"Iran supports our project, and wants nothing out of us."

Qassem praised Iran, saying it has been paying "a heavy price for decades" for supporting Palestine.
