Hezbollah says will keep fighting if Israel presses on with assault on Gaza

Hezbollah chief Nasrallah says support for Gaza is ‘final’, as cross-border fighting displaces thousands of people.
The head of powerful Lebanese armed group Hezbollah said that residents of northern Israel would not be able to return home for the start of the next school year if their government pressed on with its assault on the Gaza Strip.
Hezbollah has been exchanging fire with the Israeli military across Lebanon’s southern border in parallel with the Gaza assault that began on October 7. The Iran-aligned armed group has said it is launching rockets at Israel both to support its ally, the Palestinian group Hamas which governs Gaza, and to deter Israel from launching an attack on Lebanon.
In a televised address on Monday, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah repeated that the group would continue fighting as long as Israel continued its assault on Gaza.
“The link between the supportive Lebanese front and Gaza is definitive, final and conclusive,” he said. “No one will be able to de-link them.”
The fighting has displaced tens of thousands of people on both sides of the Israel-Lebanon border and prompted fears of a bigger war between the heavily armed adversaries.
