Mohammad Afif mentioned during a press conference:

• Hezbollah's priority is to defeat Israel, and we remain open to efforts to stop the aggression.
• The intense Israeli airstrikes do not stop over the southern suburb under the pretext of the presence of weapons warehouses.
• The residents will soon return to southern Lebanon and the Bekaa Valley.
• The southern suburb of Beirut will return better than it was.
• The battle with the enemy is still in its early stages, so do not rush the results.
• Hezbollah's strategic stockpile is fine, and we will continue to fight.
• Hezbollah fights flexibly according to the requirements of the battle.
• Hezbollah fighters refuse to withdraw from areas considered militarily lost.
• Hezbollah's rockets on northern Israel are evidence that the battle is still in its early stages.
• The aggression against UNIFIL forces in southern Lebanon is a condemned act.
• The enemy bombs ambulances to prevent the transportation of the injured.
