A senior Hamas official has told The Associated Press that the Palestinian militant group had expected stronger intervention from Hezbollah in its war with Israel, in a rare public appeal to its allies in the region.Ghazi Hamad, a member of Hamas' decision-making political bureau, said in an interview that "we need more" from allies, including Hezbollah in Lebanon, in light of an Israeli air campaign that Palestinian health officials say has killed more than 7,000 people, mostly civilians, in the besieged Gaza Strip."Hezbollah now is working against the occupation," Hamad said at the Hamas office in Beirut Thursday. "We appreciate this. But … we need more in order to stop the aggression on Gaza … We expect more."
Our philosophy and vision is to open all fronts. We want all parties to participate in the resistance against the occupation. This is the duty of all Muslims and Arabs in the region to support our people. We want to struggle against the occupation, the Lebanese front, the Jordanian front, the Arab front all and everywhere. ... In general, I think we are asking anyone, any group, any faction, now, if they are able to participate in the confrontation, to come and do what they can do. The door is open, but we are asking all of them to come, and participate with us In the fight against the occupation.
Hezbollah’s leadership has decided to change the military tactics related to the firing of anti-tank missiles from Lebanon at Israeli military posts, a media report said on Friday.From now on, only two Hezbollah fighters instead of several would carry out any anti-tank missile attack on the Israelis, Radio Voice of Lebanon (93.3) quoted pro-Hezbollah sources as saying.“Although the leadership has informed the resistance fighters that every member of the anti-armor unit is a potential martyr, disputes have erupted within the resistance fighters in this unit due to competition over who wants to go strike the enemy,” the sources said.“All of them want to go to the front lines to target the resistance’s weapons at the enemy, although they know that they might not come back or even that they might return shredded,” the sources added.Around 50 Hezbollah members have been killed by Israeli fire since the eruption of hostilities on October 8.
