RNA – ‎The head of Hezbollah’s Executive Council, Hujjat al-Islam Sayyid Hashim Safiuddin, said the liberation of al-Quds [Jerusalem] from “Israeli” occupation tops the agenda of the ‎regional resistance front, and that the Lebanese Resistance movement is fully prepared ‎for any type of confrontation with the regime in Tel Aviv in line with that objective.‎

Hujjat al-Islam Safiuddin said during an interview with al-Mayadeen television channel on ‎Tuesday that what has changed since May 2000 until today is that the Resistance has increased ‎in strength, knowledge and solidity, and the resistance has increased progress and realization of ‎the great achievements at the regional level.‎

‎“We are perfectly ready to confront any act of aggression or instance of folly that the Zionist ‎regime could commit,” His Eminence said.‎
‎
“The Resistance movement is currently assured and well aware of its approach and choices in ‎the event of such a confrontation with the enemy,” Hujjat al-Islam Safiuddin added.‎

However, His Eminence noted that Hezbollah is not seeking war and is not working to ignite one.‎

Hujjat al-Islam Safiuddin further highlighted a string of defeats the “Israeli” entity has suffered in ‎the face of the regional resistance front over the past years, including in the wars the regime ‎waged against Lebanon in 2000 and 2006.‎
‎
“The [‘Israeli’] army, which had been described as invincible, was subdued and suffered defeat,” ‎His Eminence said.‎

The “Israeli” entity is currently caught in a “tight spot” as it has fallen short of answering questions ‎that have to do with military affairs, Hujjat al-Islam Safiuddin said.‎

His Eminence further added the main goal of the regional resistance front is to secure the ‎liberation of al-Quds [Jerusalem] from “Israeli” occupation, and that all have a “duty” to prepare ‎for a confrontation with the Zionist regime to realize that objective.‎

Hujjat al-Islam Safiuddin also pointed to the upcoming International al-Quds Day, emphasizing ‎the importance of commemorating the “precious” occasion.‎

Every year, millions of Muslims and supporters of the Palestinian cause mark the occasion ‎across the world on the last Friday of the fasting month of Ramadan to underscore the plight of ‎Palestinians, heeding a call by the late founder of the Islamic Republic, His Eminence Imam ‎Khomeyni.‎
