Salami conveyed a message to Nasrallah, saying: "Israel will face a decisive response from the axis of resistance." He added that Israel would receive a decisive response from the axis of resistance, which "will lead to its end soon."
Iran, along with its branches in the Middle East, intends to retaliate against Israel in response to the pager attacks in Lebanon and Syria, during which hundreds of Iranians were injured, including the Iranian ambassador to Lebanon.
Earlier this evening, Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah delivered a speech addressing the pager and communication device explosion attacks in Lebanon yesterday and the day before, in which dozens of Lebanese terrorist organization operatives were killed and thousands were injured. In his speech, Nasrallah says he will start with the moral aspect, then discuss what happened, and finally the stance Hezbollah will take. He thanked the Lebanese government for mobilizing and for blood donations to the wounded.
Nasrallah revealed that "on Tuesday, I received messages from Israel to stop the attacks, otherwise there would be another attack on Wednesday." He broke his silence and accused Israel of the attack: "Israel attacked thousands of our pagers on Tuesday. It crossed all red lines," he claimed. "For two days, it wanted to kill about 5,000 people in two minutes." He admitted: "There's no doubt that we suffered a big blow, humanly and security-wise, unprecedented in Hezbollah's history at least, and perhaps in the history of the conflict with the enemy in the entire region, and the world as a whole - this type of killing, attack, and crime. We know the enemy has technological superiority. We admit this. On our side, we rely on efforts, attrition, sacrifice. One day the enemy's hand is on top, and another day our hand is on top."
