Khamenei to Hariri: Only Lebanese resistance will deter Israel

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that "the resistance is the only deterring factor" against Israel, which is why it should be strengthened.

Khamenei told Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri during a meeting that "if the Zionist regime could, it would overtake Beirut and even Tripoli, until it besieges Syria. The only factor deterring it is the resistance." He added that Lebanon is the only Arab nation that can break Israel. "As long as the Zionist regime exists, Lebanon needs the resistance movement," Khamenei said. (Dudi Cohen)
