Commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force, Esmaeil Ghaani, issued a statement on Wednesday asserting Israel needs to acknowledge and learn from past military setbacks against Hezbollah. The warning came amidst ongoing regional tensions and follows recent confrontations between Israel and Hezbollah. Ghaani’s remarks, reported by Iranian news agency MNA, frame Hezbollah as a successful resistance movement. The statement does not detail specific defeats, but implies a pattern of Israeli failures in engagements with the Lebanese group. This declaration underscores Iran’s continued support for Hezbollah and its critical stance towards Israel. It also suggests a potential escalation of rhetoric as regional dynamics remain volatile. The Quds Force is a designated terrorist organization by several countries.
