Hezbollah to Respond to Israeli Attacks within Framework of Legitimate Defense
“We will respond to any aggression by the Zionist regime from a defensive position and within the framework of our legitimate rights,” the official said on Saturday, according to Al Jazeera.
“We will continue this process until the enemy is forced to fully observe the ceasefire,” he added.
The Hezbollah official clarified that Hezbollah's attacks in response to the aggression of the occupying regime are defensive in nature and their aim is to oblige the enemy to adhere to the ceasefire agreement.
The senior Hezbollah official continued, “The increase in military tensions by the Zionist regime is in fact a project to consolidate the regime’s freedom of action in the region, outside of any agreed mechanism between Iran and the United States, and this approach endangers the stability of the region.”
Earlier on Saturday, the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters of Iran announced the closure of the Strait of Hormuz in response to the breach of the Islamabad memorandum of understanding following Israeli strikes against Lebanon.

“In light of the United States' clear breach of its commitments regarding the first article of the memorandum of understanding on ending the war, and in response to the continuous and relentless violations of the ceasefire by the Zionist regime in southern Lebanon, which have resulted in the brutal killing and displacement of hundreds of thousands of innocent people in that territory, as well as considering the failure of the occupying Zionist forces to withdraw from southern Lebanon, it is announced that the Strait of Hormuz will be closed to vessel traffic,” the headquarters said in a statement.
