Hassan Nasrallah: Russia exposes reason why Israel orchestrated murder of Hezbollah leader
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has made some striking comments regarding the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah by Israel in a rampaging attack that has raised tensions in the region.
He believes that this move is not just a simple political assassination, but a calculated act aimed at provoking a full-blown war in the entire region, involving Iran and the US. Lavrov’s words were clear: “not simply a political assassination. It’s very cynical as an act.”
He also pointed out that many people think Israel’s ultimate goal is to draw the US directly into the conflict by provoking Iran. Lavrov stated, “I think – well not even, I think, but a lot of people say – that Israel wants to create the grounds to drag the US directly into this, and so to create these grounds, it is trying to provoke Iran.”
Despite the tensions, Lavrov commended Iran’s leadership for their responsible behaviour, saying, “The Iran leadership, I think, are behaving extremely responsibly. And this is necessary. This is something that we should take due note of.”
These comments come at a critical time, as the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah has already resulted in significant casualties and displacement. The international community is watching closely, with many leaders calling for restraint and a ceasefire.
