Hezbollah’s Nasrallah expected to reveal stance over Israeli strike on Friday

Hezbollah General Secretary Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah is scheduled to make a speech on Friday (January 30) during a rally to grieve the fighters who were killed in an Israeli strike in Syria's Quneitra.

Nasrallah will reveal Hezbollah’s stance from the raid that killed a top Iranian military official, a prominent Hezbollah member and five others.

Israel and Hezbollah are enemies and fought a one month-long war in 2006.

Among the people killed in the airstrike was Jihad Mughniyeh, the son of Imad Mughniyeh — a top Hezbollah operative who was assassinated back in 2008 in Syria’s Damascus in a bombing that the party blamed on Israel.

Since Syria's uprising started in March 2011, Israel has reportedly carried out several airstrikes in Syria, targeting weapons systems, including Russian-made anti-aircraft missiles and Iranian-made missiles, believed to be destined for Hezbollah.

Nasrallah recently said Hezbollah reserves the right to retaliate for those attacks.

He also reiterated that the party may respond at any time for the assassination of the elder Mughniyeh.
