Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, leader of Hezbollah Al Manar via Reuters – 7.8.2020 The content of the speech by the leader of Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, scheduled for this Friday (3), causes apprehension in the world due to fear that the war between the Israeli Army and the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas spread across the region. The tone of the statement by the head of the Lebanese extremist organization, an ally of Hamas, could promote an escalation in tensions and, consequently, expand rocket attacks against the Jewish State. This will be the first time Nasrallah has spoken publicly since the start of the war between Israel and Hamas on October 7. The announcement is scheduled to take place at 3pm local time (10am Brasília time).

South Lebanon suffers significantly more from the Israeli response than any other region in the country, which includes a 15-year occupation by Israel between 1985 and 2000. “Even among supporters [de Nasrallah, líder do Hezbollah]there are people who feel that [o sul] always fought against Israel [no passado] and that, at this moment, we are not ready for a war,” a man identified only as Mohamad, a resident of southern Lebanon, told Arabic TV station Al Jazeera. He did not reveal his surname, for fear that Hezbollah could harm him. lo. Hezbollah’s role in the war Violence between Israel and Hezbollah erupted shortly after Hamas launched a surprise attack in southern Israel, where it massacred hundreds and kidnapped at least 239 people, according to the latest report. Around 1,400 were murdered in the terrorist offensive. The Jewish State responded with incessant bombings and the total siege of the Gaza Strip, preventing Palestinians from accessing basic products such as water, food, medicine, electricity and fuel. Although hundreds of trucks with humanitarian aid have entered Palestinian territory through the Rafah border crossing in recent weeks, Israel prevented the delivery of fuel to the region, claiming that this could benefit Hamas. As a result, several hospitals have had to close their doors, and the few that are still operating are carrying out procedures without anesthesia.

Among the victims are Palestinians killed after the attack on the Jabalia refugee camp in the north. According to the Gaza Ministry of Health, 195 people died and another 777 were injured in this offensive. At least 120 people are missing under the rubble. Despite growing calls for a ceasefire, Israel has said it will not stop attacking Gaza until it eradicates Hamas. Palestinian terrorists form the so-called “axis of resistance” with Hezbollah and other armed groups in the region, in addition to Iran, which has great military power and sponsors these organizations. This week, the spokesman for the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Nasser Kanaani, stated that Israel has crossed “all red lines” in the war against Hamas. It is possible that, in his speech, Nasrallah will warn Israel to reconsider the possibility of a ceasefire. Expectations of Palestinian refugees Despite the anxiety of the Lebanese and out of concern that Nasrallah will intensify attacks against Israel, Palestinian refugees in Lebanon say they would like to witness Hezbollah’s escalation of the offensive. Ahed Bar, a member of a Palestinian political party in Lebanon, told Al Jazeera that he hoped the images of children killed in Gaza forced the “axis of resistance” to confront the Jewish State from multiple fronts, including Lebanon. “This is the opportunity to finally liberate Palestine,” he declared from Sabra and Shatila, two neighborhoods that are home to a refugee camp in the Lebanese capital, Beirut. “Arab nations can finally help Palestine, but most do nothing.” Professor Mohannad Hage Ali, an expert on Lebanon at the Carnegie Middle East Center, added: “Millions of Arabs will watch the speech around the world. They will hear the only leader in the region who is able to speak to their anger and despair, saying who will act and support Palestinians in Gaza who face an existential threat of expulsion.” Bunker, kibbutz and Hezbollah: understand the terms used in the war between Israel and Hamas
