Hassan Nasrallah, head of the Lebanese Shiite movement Hezbollah has warned that if there was war against Iran the whole Middle East region would “erupt”.
US President Donald “Trump, his administration, and his intelligence know well that any war on Iran will not remain confined to Iran’s borders”, Hassan Nasrallah said. “Any war on Iran will mean the whole region will erupt,” he said in a televised speech on Friday.
“And any American forces and American interests will be permissible” as a target, he said.
Hezbollah is listed as a “terrorist group” by the United States, and has fought several wars with US ally Israel to the south of Lebanon. Nasrallah on Friday also slammed a proposed US peace deal to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that Trump has dubbed “the deal of the century”.
