The Iranian Revolutionary Guard announced today, Monday, that the revenge for the assassination of the military leader of Hezbollah, Haitham al-Tabtabai, is a "preserved right," indicating that the response to Israel "will be overwhelming and at the appointed time."
The Revolutionary Guard stated in a statement that "the axis of resistance and Hezbollah in Lebanon reserve the right to respond for the blood of the brave fighters of Islam," emphasizing that the assassination of al-Tabtabai in the southern suburbs of Beirut "will not go unpunished."
The statement added that the axis of resistance "has the ability and will to deter the Zionist enemy," stressing that the military option "is strongly on the table."
This statement from the Revolutionary Guard comes amid rising regional tensions and open possibilities for a new escalation between Israel and Hezbollah, alongside international warnings of an expanding confrontation.
Haitham al-Tabtabai is considered one of the prominent leaders of Hezbollah's military wing, and he was killed on Sunday in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a densely populated residential area south of the Lebanese capital, Beirut.
Last week, the Israeli army intensified its strikes on targets in Lebanon, announcing the bombing of rocket launch pads and weapons depots belonging to Hezbollah.
The axis of resistance and Hezbollah in Lebanon reserve the right to respond for the blood of the brave fighters of Islam.
