Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said in a speech that "the Americans threatened Lebanon that if the southern front is not stopped, Israel will start a war." 

According to him, "Washington's intimidation will not help – neither today nor tomorrow. The one who should be afraid of war is Israel. We have been ready for war for 99 days and are not afraid of it."

Nasrallah also said that the U.S. should also understand that the situation in the Red Sea and the developments in Iraq and Lebanon all depend on stopping the war in Gaza, and added that the U.S. attacks in the Red Sea will harm all maritime traffic.
