Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem addressed the new dispute between Israel and Lebanon over the gas field discovered in the Mediterranean Sea. He said his organization will 'defend the natural resources and gas fields discovered in Lebanon's waters.'
Qassem, who gave an interview on the matter to Hezbollah's television news channel al-Manar, said, 'The resistance is prepared and invited to stand against any adventurous and foolish action of the enemy's government. It is Lebanon's right to exercise its sovereignty and control over its natural treasures. As such, the resistance is responsible for using all means to help.'"
