Nasrallah: Until this moment, we did not fight alongside Syrian regime

Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said on Thursday that the drone aircraft which his group sent into Israel was shot down near the Dimona nuclear reactor.               

"The drone flew over sensitive installations inside southern Palestine," he said in a televised speech.                 

Nasrallah noted that the plane was Iranian-made, not Russian, adding that this operation proves that the resistance is capable “of hiding its capabilities and showing them at the right time”. He stressed that “the Resistance has the right to send other reconnaissance drones to Israel, anytime it wants”.                     

On the Syrian level, Nasrallah denied sending fighters into Syria, noting that “until this moment Hezbollah did not fight alongside the Syrian regime”.                        

Commenting on the Nabi Sheet incident, Sayyed Nasrallah said that "it is normal that any resistance would distribute its depots which are supposed to be clandestine; pointing that technical or human error could take place."
