Nasrallah reaches out to family of slain LAF helicopter plot

Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said on Thursday that his group will not surrender its weapons "as long as Israeli threats persist."

"These weapons will remain because they are used for defense," Nasrallah said in a televised speech during an iftar hosted by the Hizbullah Support Committee.

Nasrallah also reiterated that Hizbullah will destroy Israel if the Jewish state launches a new attack on Lebanon.

He said the Israeli administration and military were well aware that their navy and air force "failed to achieve any military victories [during the summer 2006 war] … They caused destruction but they did not succeed on the military level."

"Israel's elite military power will be destroyed in the South and in the Western Bekaa as well as in any place they might target in Lebanon," he added.
