Israel's Nights of Punishment Begin: Hezbollah's Chief Says Iran's Delayed Revenge Won't Stop Until…

In a dramatic revelation, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has unveiled the strategic reasoning behind his group's delay in retaliating for the assassination of Fuad Shukr. According to Nasrallah, the postponement was not merely a wait-and-see approach but a deliberate and bold tactic designed to keep Israel on edge. He emphasised that the delay allowed Hezbollah to monitor the outcome of ongoing Gaza truce negotiations and assess the potential response from the "axis of Resistance," which includes Iran and its regional allies. Nasrallah’s announcement sheds light on Hezbollah's strategic calculus, revealing that the timing of their response was intended to maximise psychological and tactical impact. The delay was also a calculated move to punish Israel by keeping it in suspense for nearly a month, demonstrating Hezbollah's capacity for strategic patience and complex planning. #Nasrallah #Hezbollah #IsraelConflict #StrategicDelay #GazaTruce #MiddleEastTensions #HezbollahReveals #IsraeliSuspense #AxisOfResistance #IranAllies #ConflictEscalation #GeopoliticalStrategy #MilitaryTactics #MiddleEastConflict #HezbollahStrategy ~PR.152~ED.194~HT.334~
