Safieddine says Hezbollah to 'continue to put pressure' on Israel
While war continues in Gaza, "all resistance forces (including Hezbollah)... will continue to put pressure on Israel," senior Hezbollah official Sayyed Hashem Safieddine has said during a speech.
"There is no question today of talking about a ceasefire on one front and not the other," he added.
The frontier between Lebanon and Israel has seen daily exchanges of fire since October 7 when unprecedented attacks on Israel by the Gaza-based Hamas sparked a devastating war.
At least 90 people have been killed on the Lebanese side in cross-border skirmishes since last month, according to an AFP tally, most of them Hezbollah combatants but including at least 10 civilians.
Six soldiers and three civilians have been killed on the Israeli side, according to authorities there.
