In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Hezbollah issued the following statement:
It is a glorious day of God, a majestic scene of glory and dignity written by the great people of the Resistance, who have proven once again that they are the people rooted in their land, clinging to every grain of soil in it, the faithful guardians of the nation’s sovereignty, and who do not bow before any threat or aggression.
Since 2000 until today, the scene is repeated, as our people prove that they are the true leaders of the path to victory. With their heroic Resistance, they defeat the enemy once more, confirming that there is no place for an occupier in this blessed land, in which every grain of soil has been watered with the blood of martyrs.
The scene of the returnees to their villages, carrying pictures of the martyrs and banners of the Resistance, embodies the highest meanings of steadfastness, resilience, and victory. It affirms that this people, with their indomitable will and unwavering determination, represent the strongest weapon of the Resistance—an enduring strength that our beloved martyr, the leader of the nation’s martyrs, his eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah (may Allah's mercy be upon him), has always described as "the point of strength that no one can defeat." The people of the Resistance have proven their loyalty to their pure blood, and no matter the might of the invaders, they remain incapable of standing firm against this blessed popular surge that, with its steps and direction, has charted a singular path: the liberation of the land and the final expulsion of the occupier.
We, in Hezbollah, bow in reverence before the greatness of the people of the Resistance and affirm that the equation of "the army, the people, and the Resistance"—which protects Lebanon from the treachery of enemies—is not merely ink on paper. Rather, it is a reality that the Lebanese live daily and embody through their steadfastness and sacrifices.
We call on all Lebanese to stand united with their brothers and sisters in the South, so that together, we may renew the spirit of national solidarity and build true sovereignty, marked by liberation and victory. We emphasize that the international community, led by the countries sponsoring the agreement, is now required to fulfill its responsibilities in the face of "israeli" violations and crimes, and to compel the enemy to fully withdraw from our lands.
We salute the souls of the martyrs and the wounded who paved the path to liberation and victory with their blood. We consider these great moments that our nation is experiencing today to be a reaffirmation that Lebanon, with its people, Resistance, and free people, is a nation of pride and dignity.
