Hezbollah says that the United States “will not deter” its resistance against Israel after Washington announced new sanctions on the group, accusing it of serving Iran, AFP reports.
“All these unjust sanctions and classifications will not deter us from adhering to the path of resistance and the right of Lebanon and the Lebanese to defend their land, sovereignty and resources,” Hezbollah says in a statement, stressing that it “does not need anyone to vouch for its Lebanese identity and patriotism”.
“Our close and fraternal relationship with the Islamic Republic of Iran is a relationship we cherish and are proud of,” it adds.
