Moscow reveals Israel’s objective behind assassination of Hassan Nasrallah

WORLD, Oct. 03 (YPA) -Russian Permanent Representative the UN Vasily Nebenzya affirmed on Wednesday that Israel, by assassinating the Secretary-General of Lebanese Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, deliberately escalates the conflict and bears full responsibility for the escalation.

“The political assassination [of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah] has the potential for catastrophic consequences in Lebanon and across the entire Middle East. West Jerusalem could not fail to realize this, but it deliberately went for escalation. Therefore, the Israeli side bears all responsibility for the ensuing escalation of its consequences, including for the people of Israel,” he said at a meeting of the UN Security Council dedicated to the Middle East.

Last Saturday, Hezbollah mourned its Secretary-General, Hassan Nasrallah, who was said to have been assassinated by the Zionist enemy during a violent operation targeting the Beirut’s southern suburbs.
