Naim Qassem, the new leader of Hezbollah, declared on Wednesday that he will follow the war plan outlined by Hassan Nasrallah, his predecessor, who was assassinated by Israel last month after full-scale combat began.
In his opening statements as the leader of Hezbollah, Qassem declared, “My work program is a continuation of the work program of our leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah,” promising to continue with “the war plan that he (Nasrallah) developed with the leadership” of the Iran-backed organisation.
