Statement issued by Hezbollah:

“Hezbollah condemns the treacherous Zionist aggression that targeted Syria in a blatant assault on its territory, hiding behind flimsy pretexts and slogans to implement its expansionist and fragmentation projects, which aim to dismantle and divide Syria and sow discord among its people.

This Zionist aggression is a clear attempt to undermine the stability of the Syrian state and weaken its capabilities, and it comes in the same context as its ongoing attacks on Lebanon and the Gaza Strip.

While we, in Hezbollah, stress the need to preserve Syria's unity and sovereignty as an independent state, we express our confidence that the honorable people of Syria will be an impregnable barrier against these suspicious schemes. We call on the international community, especially Arab countries, to take urgent action to halt this aggression against the countries of the region and their stability, sovereignty, and security.”
