Head of Hezbollah threatens Israel, Cyprus in televised address

The head of Lebanon’s Hezbollah Hassan Nasrallah has warned that his group would fight with “no rules” and “no ceilings” in case a broader war with Israel erupts, and that nowhere in Israel would be safe from Hezbollah’s attacks.

In a televised address, Nasrallah said that included possible targets in the Mediterranean Sea.

Nasrallah also threatened Cyprus for the first time, saying Hezbollah could consider it “a part of the war”, if it continued to allow Israel to use its airports and bases for military exercises.

Ibrahim Moussawi, a Hezbollah member of the Lebanese Parliament, says while the Lebanese-armed group does not want an all-out war with Israel, it is prepared to fight one if it is “imposed” on them.
