Hezbollah Secretary-General Naim Qassem has said there is no ceasefire as Israel continues to attack Lebanon, adding that there is no “buffer zone” in the country and there will never be one, Al Jazeera reports.
Qassem said Lebanon needs guarantees for its security and added that while his group is in favour of indirect negotiations with Israel, direct talks would be a gratuitous concession to Israel’s prime minister.
Hezbollah’s leader added that the group would continue its armed resistance to prevent Israel from gaining a foothold in Lebanon.
