Hezbollah Vows Retaliation for Devastating Device Blasts in Beirut
In the aftermath of the devastating blast that rocked Beirut’s port area, Hezbollah’s secretary-general Hassan Nasrallah has vowed to retaliate against those responsible for the attack. The explosion on Tuesday evening killed over 100 people and injured thousands more, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.
Nasrallah, in a televised speech, accused Israel of orchestrating the attack and promised that Hezbollah would not rest until those responsible are held accountable. "We will not let this attack pass without a response," he said. "We will not let the blood of our martyrs go to waste."
The blast was caused by a stockpile of ammonium nitrate, a highly flammable and explosive chemical, which was stored in a warehouse at the port. An investigation is ongoing to determine the cause of the blast, but officials have identified several potential factors, including negligence and human error.
The explosion has sparked widespread outrage and grief across Lebanon, with many calling for those responsible to be held accountable. The blast has also raised concerns about the country’s ability to rebuild and recover from the devastation.
