Member of the "Loyalty to the Resistance Bloc," MP Ihab Hamada, pointed out that "the French paper, regardless of its details and titles, relates to the Lebanese south that is currently supporting its people in Palestine and Gaza." He stated during a political dialogue meeting in the town of Nabha in the Baalbek region that "any talk about the reality and future of the south is a discussion that we do not engage in, nor will we comment until the war in Palestine and Gaza is completely over." Hamada threatened, saying: "If the Israeli enemy continues to refuse a ceasefire, then its defeat will be declared and indisputable, and major heads will fall, shaking this entity just as it was shaken by the resistance's strikes, and by what the Islamic Republic of Iran has directed in an unprecedented scene that makes the enemy aware of its true size and the strength and capabilities we possess in the resistance axis."
