The Shia group Hezbollah will not leave the battlefield and will continue its resistance, the organization's Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem said

The Israeli military was attacking Hezbollah targets in neighboring Lebanon, amid worries that its war with the United States against Iran may escalate and spill across the region.

Israel said it was attacking sites connected to Lebanon's Shi'ite Muslim armed group Hezbollah, one of Tehran's principal allies.
