Gaza and Lebanon under aggression

As the first anniversary of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip approaches, targeting all the necessities of life for the Gazans, carrying out massacres and heinous crimes against civilians, including children, women and the elderly, squandering the right to a decent life, displacing tens of thousands of citizens, targeting them wherever they flee, leaving them homeless and far from any refuge, Israel decided yesterday to transfer its aggressive experience on Gaza to Lebanon, through a war declared by Netanyahu and his army leaders, targeting the (Land of the Cedars) with hundreds of missile strikes that left about 400 martyrs and more than 1,300 wounded, and forced thousands of Lebanese to flee from the south to the north, as is the case with the citizens of the Strip who were forced by the army to flee from the north to the south and to the pastures in Khan Yunis, in a scene that confirms the policy of displacement that the occupation, with its racist mentality, is trying to impose in southern Lebanon, amid a Palestinian uprising, by the sons of the camps in Lebanon, who rushed to rescue the displaced fleeing from the ferocity of the Israeli bombing. To open the doors and facilities of their humble homes, which are full of all the elements of Palestinian pride, dignity, authenticity and chivalry.

The aggression on Lebanon was planned by the occupation a lot and it does not aim, as announced, to return the settlers to the north, eliminate Hezbollah’s military capabilities, and prevent it from threatening the settlements established in northern Palestine. Rather, the further strategic goal is to create a new reality through which the Netanyahu government seeks to occupy southern Lebanon. This is a policy and language that the occupation seeks to impose with the logic of force and barbarism, by violating Lebanon and its sovereignty, a country that has always stood in the face of the Israeli occupation and has played roles through honorable stances alongside the Palestinian people and their resistance, especially the current stance of support for the war front in the south.

The occupation government seeks to expand the scope of its terrorism in southern Lebanon to deeper areas and to intensify the raids, in preparation for ground invasions, the goal of which is to inflict the largest possible number of victims targeted by yesterday’s bombing, in addition to other plans that Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant spoke about when he said: We are overcoming twenty years of Hezbollah’s preparation and organization, referring to a long war against Lebanon, despite Netanyahu’s claim that the army is only attacking Hezbollah, while in fact it is attacking the entire Lebanese people, in a manner completely similar to what it is doing in the Gaza Strip, and with a green light from the United States.

Lebanon, its resistance, its free people, and all the honorable people in this country will face difficult days. It is proud of its evergreen cedars, it fights time and does not accept anything but the peaks as its home. Its plains, its valleys, and its north as well, insist on taking up the challenge and standing firm in the face of this sinful aggression.

Every drop of blood shed by a Lebanese, every deep wound in the ranks of their fighters, every green tree burned, or every house destroyed by the aggression, is the price of the honorable stance taken by the Lebanese people and Hezbollah with Palestine, through the “Support Gaza” front since the first day of the Al-Aqsa flood... at a time when entire Arab regimes and peoples stand as spectators, watching Israel enjoy shedding our blood.

Congratulations to those who decided to take the soil of Lebanon as an eternal bed to confront the aggression...and a station that will remain firmly in the hearts and conscience...Long live Lebanon
