BEIRUT (Dispatches) – Hezbollah’s Liaison and Coordination Chief Wafiq Safa has said that drones are one of the most important weapons the resistance movement owns today.
In an interview with al-Nour radio station in Lebanon, Safa noted that these drones have proved effective in the case of the maritime deal.
“The process of demarcating the maritime borders constituted liberation [to Lebanon], and the drones constituted a serious tool in this file,” he told the radio station.
Safa also pointed out to the fact that “drones have become the most powerful weapon in the region today,” underscoring “these weapons have become one of the important arms the resistance owns.”
Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement confirmed in July that it flew three unarmed drones towards the Karish gas field in the country’s territorial waters, sending a message to the Zionist regime.
Following the statement, Sheikh Nabil Qaouk, a top member of the executive council of Hezbollah, said the operation conveyed a message at the appropriate place and time and had a quick effect.
Qaouk explained that the “drones plunged the Israeli enemy into new equations and calculations, and the post-drones period does not resemble the pre-drones one.”
Meanwhile, the Deputy Secretary General of Lebanon’s Hezbollah Sheikh Naim Qassem warned that the resistance movement will punish the occupying regime and bring it back to its senses in case of any foolishness in terms of the maritime agreement with Lebanon.
The second-in-command of the resistance movement reiterated on Thursday that Hezbollah is ready to confront the regime, and it is the strength and unity in Lebanon.
“If Israel creates an issue in the maritime agreement, Hezbollah has enough power to punish and prevent any foolishness [of this regime],” he said.
On another note, Sheikh Qassem pointed out the U.S. oppresses all the people of the world.
Sputnik quoted Sheikh Qassem as saying, “We will never accept to be under U.S. command or obey its orders. The coming future will prove that the U.S. will not be able to implement its plans in a region where resistance is present and there are nations that do not accept American hegemony.”
He stated that the U.S. is confronting Hezbollah due to the resistance movement’s struggle with the Zionist regime, explaining “Israel was created by the West to be its tool and through it to dominate the future and destiny of this region.”
“In breach of human rights and humanity, the West uses Israel as a tool whenever it wants to achieve its criminal goals without having to pay direct costs,” he noted.
