The response of the Lebanese Shia movement Hezbollah to the actions of Israel will be real and well-weighed, Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah said on Thursday.
"There will definitely be a response to Israel's crimes, and this issue is not up for discussion. The decision is now on the battlefield and is determined by its circumstances and possibilities; we are looking for a real and very thoughtful, not formal response," Nasrallah said in an address in connection with the killing of Sayyed Mohsen, also known as "Fuad Shukr," and Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh.
Hezbollah will resume a "support front" for the Gaza Strip and attacks on Israel's military positions starting Friday morning, the leader added.
Earlier on Wednesday, Hamas confirmed that Haniyeh was killed in an Israeli attack on his residence in Tehran after he took part in the inauguration of newly elected Iranian president Masoud Pezeshkian.
