Syrian Arab News Agency S A N A
Beirut, SANA- Hezbollah on Friday dismissed as a “pure fiction” a report published by Reuters news agency claiming that the Lebanese resistance group has allegedly “forged” a new command for the ground battles in south Lebanon after the assassination of its top leaders.
“Reuters news agency has published a report on what it called a new military command directing the Israeli ground offensive in south Lebanon and on some details related to this war, its nature, plans and weapons,” Hezbollah Media Relations announced in a statement.
“This report is not but a pure fiction imagined by Reuters’ writers, journalists and security advisers,” the statement read.
“What the agency has attributed to a so-called field commander is totally false, and our policy, as it has become well known, though it’s necessary to reiterate: There is nothing called Hezbollah sources,” it added.
“Moreover, there is nothing in Hezbollah, called field commander who offers such dangerous information, allegedly attributed to him,” Hezbollah’s Media Relations Office concluded.
Hezbollah Media Relations Officer Hajj Mohammad Afif is to hold a press conference later on Friday. He is expected to tackle latest developments at 17:00 (Beirut time) in the Lebanese capital.
Hezbollah Media Relations Office organized several tours for journalists in the southern suburb of Beirut, Dahiyeh, since the start of the Israeli aggression on Lebanon on September 23, 2024. The tours aimed at showing the journalists that the Israeli enemy is deliberately attacking residential areas in Dahiyeh under the pretext that these structures are allegedly used for military means.
