Hezbollah warns it could retaliate if Israeli strikes on Lebanon continue
CBSN
The leader of Lebanon's Hezbollah group warned Saturday that if Israel's attacks on Lebanon continue and the Lebanese state does not act to stop them, the group will eventually resort to other alternatives.
Naim Kassem's comments came a day after Israel launched an attack on Lebanon's capital for the first time since a ceasefire ended the latest Israel-Hezbollah war in November. The strike on Beirut came hours after two rockets were fired from Lebanon toward Israel, and Hezbollah denied it had launched them.
There was no immediate response from Israeli officials.
