Hezbollah UAVs Intercepted by the IDF, July 2, 2022 (IDF Spokesman)

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah this evening (Wednesday) defended the launch of the drones at the shark gas rig and threatened that Hezbollah has the ability to send large-scale armed drones.

"Some said it was an action outside the agreement - what agreement?" He wondered.

"Whoever promised the Americans that nothing would be done, deceived them and himself."

According to Nasrallah, "We launched drones of various sizes and unarmed, we knew that the enemy would drop them because we want the air force to launch missiles and that warships move, so that anyone operating in this area knows he is unsafe." He threatened, "We have the ability to send drones Armed with different sizes and larger quantities. "

He said that the drones were sent to "show that we are serious", and he said "this message reached the enemy and the proof is the Israeli response on the ground, in addition to the contacts that reached Lebanon and us".

He claimed that Hezbollah has "diverse capabilities on land, at sea and in the air and all options are open. We will use everything that will serve us to the extent, in time and in an appropriate manner."

He continued, "We will not be satisfied with international recognition of maritime borders - companies seeking gas must be prevented from returning to work. We tell the enemy - make no mistake, and the Americans - do not donate the Lebanese."

"Oil and gas are the only way out of the crisis," Nasrallah said, referring to the economic crisis in Lebanon.

"The country is going to a very difficult situation, and the money from the World Bank will not solve the crisis. Lebanon can disrupt oil and gas exports and thus prevent it from Europe, we only have two months because Israel is talking about oil spending in September. It will be difficult and expensive, "he explained.

"The enemy has a point of weakness and that is its need for oil and gas from the Zionist entity. Lebanon's strength is the resistance that can disrupt and prevent."

In addition, Nasrallah attacked US President Joe Biden in the context of his visit to Israel.

"The old president represents America in its old age," she said.

"Biden has since declared himself a Zionist, and he says you do not have to be a Jew to be a Zionist, and everything he said today also came about a two-state solution is just statements," Nasrallah continued, also attacking Defense Minister Bnei Gantz.

"He is lying to himself and to his people," he claimed, "Gantz would not dare take steps towards Gaza."
