Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem announced on Friday that the group reserves the right to respond to an Israeli strike that resulted in the deaths of commander Tabtabai and several other individuals. In a televised address, Qassem characterized the incident as "a blatant aggression" and indicated that the possibility of a new war remains open. These comments were made amidst heightened apprehension in Lebanon regarding potential broader Israeli attacks, which are believed to aim at pressuring Hezbollah to disarm—a stance the organization has consistently rejected.
