Nasrallah slams those focusing on losses, turning blind eye to resistance wins

Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah has praised the resistance of Hamas and the Palestinians in a recorded televised speech during an early celebration of Quds day.

Nasrallah said that some are focusing on the losses and ignoring the resistance's achievements.

"We are working to win this war and to defeat our enemy," Nasrallah said after recorded comments from Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh.

Nasrallah praised the "resistance fronts" in Yemen, Lebanon, and Iraq, the "supportive Iranian fronts", and the protesters supporting Gaza around the world.

Since the outbreak of the war in Gaza nearly six months ago, Hezbollah has stepped up attacks, leading to near daily cross-border exchanges between Hezbollah and Israel.

Hezbollah, which has a powerful arsenal of rockets and missiles, says its attacks on Israel are in support of the embattled residents in Gaza and Hamas.

Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels have also repeatedly targeted international shipping and U.S. forces in the Red Sea in recent months in what they portray as a blockade of Israel in response to the war in Gaza.
