Israel and the U.S. are trying to install an anti-Hezbollah leader as president of Lebanon, hoping to eliminate the military presence of the resistance in southern Lebanon. But it’s not the first time Israel has interfered in Lebanese politics.

Hezbollah’s newly elected Secretary General, Naim Qassem, said that the Lebanese resistance group would continue to fight for “days, weeks, and months” until Israel halts its genocide in Gaza.

Hezbollah’s Deputy Secretary General said Hezbollah’s military capacities remain intact, while Israel has reportedly informed the U.S. that an Israeli ground invasion of southern Lebanon is “imminent.”
