Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant said that the election of Sheikh Qassem as Secretary-General of Hezbollah, succeeding the late Hassan Nasrallah, is a “temporary appointment and will not last long,” in reference to the attempt to assassinate him.

In response to Gallant’s threat, the Hezbollah official said, “We are a nation that is not afraid of martyrdom, and when one of us accepts to be in a leadership position, he decides to be a martyr.” He stressed that the new Secretary-General knows the dangers surrounding him and is not afraid of Israel’s threats.

Although he said that he did not want to determine the percentage of missile capacity that the party lost, the Hezbollah official confirmed, “The stock of Hezbollah missiles can withstand a long period and deliver severe strikes deep into Israel, to 130, 140, and 145 kilometers.”
