Lebanon's Hezbollah warns Israel of Dimona nuclear reactor

Source: Xinhua   2017-02-17 05:00:23

BEIRUT, Feb. 16 (Xinhua) -- Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah called on Israel Thursday to "dismantle the Dimona nuclear reactor," warning that it poses a threat to Israel's existence if hit by Hezbollah's missiles in any confrontation.

Nasrallah made the remarks in a televised speech commemorating Hezbollah's slain leaders, commenting on an Israeli court's order that an ammonia container in the northern city of Haifa be emptied of its toxic content.

He mentioned that Israel is continuing to "launch threats against Lebanon and speak of the third Lebanon war," saying that the intimidation is not new, and the election of U.S. President Donald Trump is somehow encouraging it, as Israel seems objective to pressure the resistance community in Lebanon.

However, the policy of the new U.S. administration in the region is not clear, he added, saying that Trump's election "does not scare us, even if claims that he will give Israel the green light to wage a war on Lebanon turn out to be true."

The strength and firmness of the resistance and President Michel Aoun's unwavering stance will deter Israel from waging any war, he reassured the Lebanese public as saying.
