AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The Secretary General of Lebanon's Hezbollah, who has not spoken after the Al-Aqsa storm operation, gave a speech today at the commemoration ceremony of the martyrs of the "Quds Road" who maryred in defense of the oppressed people of Gaza.


The time of speech of the Secretary General of Lebanon's Hezbollah was at 15:00 Beirut time and 16:30 Iran time.

Hezbollah ceremony commemorating the martyrs who fell on the road to Al-Quds starts in Beirut’s southern suburb (Dahiyeh), the city of Nabatieh, Deir Qanun Al-Nahr, and Baalbek.

Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Nasrallah begins pivotal speech commemorating the martyrs who fell All the Way to Al-Quds.

"We are here to commemorate all martyrs from various factions and movements, Lebanese and Palestinian. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the families of the Lebanese Front martyrs for their loved ones' receipt of this divine medal, and our deepest condolences for their loss," he said.

Sayyed Nasrallah said: "This battle unquestionably transcends all levels, serving as one of the most vivid and compelling exemplars of a righteous struggle in the name of Allah."

"When seeking a battle that embodies complete legitimacy from humanitarian, moral, and religious perspectives, the battle against the Zionist occupation in Palestine stands unrivaled," he added.

Secretary General of Hezbollah added: "We extend our heartfelt greetings to all those who stood in solidarity, offered support, and rallied from Arab, Islamic, and Latin American nations, we must particularly acknowledge the valor of the Iraqis and Yemenis, who have entered the very heart of this noble battle.Words and statements fall short in capturing the profound greatness, resilience, and unwavering spirit of the people of Gaza and the West Bank."

Sayyed Nasrallh underlined that "The plight of the Palestinian people has been widely recognized for over 75 years, yet in recent times, the conditions in Palestine have grown increasingly dire, exacerbated by the presence of a misguided, irrational, and cruel Israeli government."

"For nearly two decades, over two million people in Gaza have endured challenging living conditions, with little relief from the international community. The extremist Israeli government’s policies have only compounded the suffering, particularly for the prisoners, resulting in a severe humanitarian crisis," he said.

Sayyed Nasrallah added that remarkable and auspicious Al-Aqsa Flood Operation was entirely a product of Palestinian determination and execution, meticulously concealed from all, including the Gaza-based resistance factions, by its orchestrators.

"The operation’s unprecedented success was secured by the absolute secrecy surrounding it, which effectively leveraged the element of surprise. The concealment of the operation didn’t raise any concerns within the resistance factions. In fact, it garnered widespread praise and had no adverse effects on the decisions made by any group or resistance movement within the axis of resistance," he sated.

He said that Hamas’s actions demonstrated the authentic nature of the battle and its objectives, thwarting attempts by enemies to distort the situation, especially in discussions concerning the relationships of regional resistance factions. The secrecy surrounding the Operation Al-Aqsa Flood underscores its purely Palestinian character, dedicated to the cause of the Palestinian people and their concerns, free from any entanglements with regional or international matters.

"The events of the Al-Aqsa Flood operation unequivocally demonstrate that Iran exerts no control over the resistance factions, with the true decision-makers being the leaders of the resistance and their dedicated fighters," he said.

"The monumental achievements in the Al-Aqsa flood operation triggered a ‘seismic impact’ across various dimensions within the Zionist entity—ranging from security and political to psychological and moral. The operation carried existential and strategic implications, whose reverberations will significantly influence the current and future trajectory of this entity," he emphasized. 

He said that "Regardless of the actions taken by the Israeli government in the past month and the weeks to come, it remains incapable of altering the enduring strategic consequences of the ‘Al-Aqsa Flood’ on their entity."

He further said that The Al-Aqsa Flood operation laid bare the entity’s vulnerabilities, exposing its fragility and demonstrating that it is indeed more fragile than a spider’s web. The American administration, along with its president, ministers, and generals, swiftly intervened to support the destabilized entity, aiming to restore some semblance of stability; however, the entity has yet to reclaim the initiative and remains in a precarious state. Even when American generals arrive to assist the entity and open their warehouses for the Israeli army, and “Israel” requests 10 billion dollars from the outset, it raises questions about the entity’s true strength and its ability to regain stability and self-sufficiency.

"These outcomes mark the onset of a new historical era for the destiny of regional nations, and there were no alternative options; hence, the choice made was not only correct and prudent but also imperative, timely, and deserving of all the sacrifices made. In light of the events in Gaza and the harrowing ordeal that the Israeli enemy endured, it appears that their government is failing to learn from its past experiences" he maintained.

Sayyed Nasrallah said that what is unfolding today bears a resemblance to previous occurrences, such as the events in Lebanon in 2006 and the recurring conflicts in Gaza, with variations in terms of scale and impact, but the fundamental nature of these events remains consistent. One of the pivotal errors that the Israelis have historically made, and continue to make, is establishing ambitious objectives that prove unattainable.

"In 2006, their aim was to eradicate the resistance in Lebanon and secure the release of the two prisoners without resorting to negotiation or exchange. However, over the course of 33 days, they failed to achieve these goals. Presently, the situation in Gaza mirrors this scenario, albeit with an escalation in terms of crimes and massacres," he said.

"The actions of the “Israelis” in Gaza involve the loss of innocent lives with a significant portion of the casualties being civilian children and women, there appears to be no regard for the sanctity of human life as the Israelis are causing extensive destruction to entire neighborhoods.  The images unfolding in Gaza each day and hour serve as a powerful message to the Zionists; they depict men, women, and children emerging from the rubble, their voices raised in support of the resistance, conveying the message that no result can be achieved through killing and massacres. The martyrs of Gaza, including its children and women, are today exposing the falsehoods that global and international media have, at times, contributed to concealing the reality of this entity. The ongoing events in Gaza are a stark reflection of the brutal and barbaric nature of the usurping entity that has been implanted in our region " he added.

Sayyed Nasrallah underlined that harrowing scenes of massacres emanating from the Gaza Strip serve as a powerful message to the Zionists: the triumph of Gaza and the defeat of ‘Israel’. The United States is seen as obstructing efforts to halt the aggression against Gaza and rejecting any proposals for a ceasefire. The Americans are perceived as the orchestrators of the conflict in Gaza; consequently, the decision by the Islamic Resistance in Iraq to target US occupation bases in Iraq and Syria is regarded as a wise and bold move. 

"The aftermath of the Operation Al-Aqsa Flood heralds a changed landscape, necessitating a shared responsibility from all parties. Two objectives demand our attention: Halting the aggression against Gaza, and securing a victory for Hamas in the region. The triumph of Gaza holds significance as a shared national interest for Egypt, Jordan, and Syria. Most notably, it is of paramount importance for Lebanon. Efforts to halt the aggression against Gaza should go beyond mere condemnation; it is imperative to take decisive actions, such as severing diplomatic relations and recalling ambassadors," he said.

He added that despite facing numerous threats, the Yemeni people have undertaken several initiatives, launching missiles and drones, even when intercepted. In the end, these missiles and drones are anticipated to reach Eilat and the Israeli military bases in southern Palestine. 

Sayyed Nasrallah calls for people calling Hezbollah to enter the battle that we already embarked on this battle on October 8th. What is unfolding on our Lebanese front will not be limited to it whatsoever, it will extend beyond that. Since October 8, the Islamic resistance in Lebanon has been actively engaged in a tangible battle, the full gravity of which is truly comprehensible only to those physically situated in the border region, a conflict that is distinguished by its unique circumstances, objectives, methods, and intended targets. The Lebanese front effectively diverted a significant portion of the Israeli forces originally intended for an attack on Gaza. Had we maintained a position of mere political solidarity and public demonstrations, the Israelis would have remained unchallenged on the northern border, allowing their forces to be deployed to Gaza.

" The Lebanese front successfully attracted approximately one-third of the Israeli army to the border with Lebanon. A significant portion of the Zionist forces deployed to the northern front comprises elite units, and nearly half of Israel’s naval capabilities are positioned in the Mediterranean, facing us and Haifa. A quarter of the Israeli air force has been redirected toward Lebanon, and almost half of the missile defense systems are oriented towards the Lebanon front, this has led to the displacement of tens of thousands of settlers in the region. The operations along the border have generated a sense of anxiety, tension, and panic within the Israeli enemy’s leadership, as well as among the Americans, " he said.

He added that enemy is deeply concerned about the potential for further escalation on this front or the outbreak of a broader conflict, this is a very real possibility that should not be dismissed and the enemy must take it into serious consideration. The resistance operations in the South serve as a deterrent to the enemy and send a clear message to any potential aggressor who might contemplate an attack on Lebanon or a preemptive operation, such actions would be the gravest folly in the history of the Israeli existence. 

" We have initiated actions on this front, and its escalation and evolution hinge on two fundamental factors; The unfolding events in Gaza, and the conduct of the Zionist enemy towards Lebanon." he added.

" I caution the Zionist enemy against persisting with actions that have impacted some civilians in Lebanon, as this could lead to the equation where civilians are pitted against one another. All possibilities on our Lebanese front remain open, with every option being considered and available for implementation at any given moment, it is imperative for us to remain prepared for all potential future scenarios, " he said.

He called to US that your fleets in the Mediterranean do not and will never instill fear in us. I want to make it clear that the fleets you threaten us with, we have also made preparations to counter them. Those who thwarted your plans in the early 1980s are still very much alive today, and alongside them are their children and grandchildren. In the event of a regional conflict, naval fleets and aerial warfare will prove futile and of no real benefit. In the event of any regional war, it’s important to acknowledge that your interests and soldiers will be the ones to suffer the most and endure the greatest losses. 

" While we may require more time, it’s worth noting that we are currently achieving victories in different aspects, much like we did in 2006, in Gaza, and as the resistance in the West Bank has consistently accomplished achievements. This battle is characterized by resilience, patience, endurance, and the accumulation of achievements, all aimed at preventing the enemy from attaining its objectives. It’s imperative that we all strive to cease the aggression against Gaza, ensuring the triumph of the resistance'," he said to the Palestinian people and the honorable resistance fighters in the region.

"Based on my personal experience and interactions with Imam Khamenei, I can attest to his unwavering conviction and belief that Gaza will ultimately emerge victorious, and that Palestine will achieve triumph; he conveyed this to us during the initial days of the July aggression," he added.

He underlined that Gaza will prevail, Palestine will triumph, and we will soon come together to celebrate this victory.
