Hezbollah leader praises 'heroic' Hamas terror attack, threatens to expand fight against Israel

Terrorist group Hezbollah is threatening to expand its fight against the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), praising the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attack against Israel as "heroic."

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said in a televised speech that the terrorist group has been involved in the conflict since the day after the Oct. 7 attacks that killed over 1,400 Israelis. The speech was his first since the war began last month.

"Some claim Hezbollah is about to join the fray. I tell you: We have been engaged in this battle since Oct. 8," he says. "Some would like Hezbollah to engage in an all-out war, but I can tell you: What is happening now along the Israeli-Lebanese border is significant, and it is not the end."
