News - Middle East: A high-ranking official with the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement says the large-scale surprise attack by Hamas and other Gaza-based resistance groups against Israel rendered ineffectual the regime’s army and its massive Western support.

Head of Hezbollah's Political Council, Ibrahim Amin al-Sayyed, said that Al-Aqsa Storm Operation brought about a substantially strategic transformation, and that the status quo in the West Asia region is no more similar to what it used to be prior to October 7, when the Palestinian operation was launched.
“The operation could render ineffectual the Zionist regime’s military apparatus, and all the foreign support it was garnering generously,” Sayyed noted.
Regarding the United States’ and its Western allies’ stance vis-à-vis Hezbollah, he stated that Washington and those in its league view the Lebanese group and the Axis of Resistance as a threat to the advancement of their agendas.
