The Hezbollah leader, Hassan Nasrallah, did not say how his group would respond to attacks on hand-held devices, which killed dozens when pagers and walkie-talkies exploded.

Nasrallah also spoke directly to Israeli leaders, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, stating that military actions would not enable the resettlement of displaced northern residents. He emphasized that no form of military escalation or violence would facilitate their return to the border areas.

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah says the pager and walkie-talkie attacks against its members in Lebanon and Syria this week crossed “all red lines” and the group will retaliate and is undeterred in its fight against Israel in support of Palestinians in Gaza.
