Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah tells Israelis and their backers that they must await Hezbollah's inevitable response to the assassination of Sayyed Fouad Shokor.

Announcing a new phase of the confrontation, Sayyed Nasrallah said: “We are facing a major battle where matters have surpassed the issue of support fronts,” announcing, “We are in an open battle on all fronts, and it has entered a new phase.” He emphasized that the escalation of the new phase “depends on the reactions of the [Israeli] occupation.”
