Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah made the remarks in a televised speech broadcast live on Sunday after the resistance movement fired hundreds of rockets and drones toward Israel in retaliation for senior commander Fuad Shukr's assassination.
He said that Hezbollah has targeted Israeli military sites rather than civilians in its recent retaliatory strikes, which he called "Arbaeen Operation."
The Hezbollah leader also said the main targets were the spy bases and the air defense bases that were hit, adding that the resistance group has decided to target the Glilot military spy base close to Tel Aviv.
Nasrallah further noted that Israel has failed to hit any Hezbollah strategic or ballistic missiles, stressing that the occupying regime is trying to cover up the losses inflicted upon it as a result of the resistance group’s retaliatory operation.
The regime's “pre-emptive” strikes had no impact on Hezbollah's retaliatory operations, he added.
Nasrallah further stated that Hezbollah delayed its retaliatory operation against Israel over the Gaza ceasefire talks in an attempt to see an end to the Israeli genocidal war against the besieged enclave.
He added that Hezbollah did not target civilians in retaliatory operations against the Israeli regime.
As part of an “initial response” to the Israeli assassination of Fuad Shukr in the southern Beirut suburb of Dahieh, Hezbollah launched at dawn Sunday a large number of rockets and drones deep into the occupied territories.
The Lebanese resistance group said it fired more than 320 rockets along with several explosive-laden drones that targeted 11 military bases in northern Israel, also setting off sirens in the coastal city of Acre, Katzrin in the occupied Golan Heights as well as numerous settlements in the Galilee.
Hezbollah also struck multiple sites, military barracks, and Iron Dome installations belonging to the occupation forces in northern occupied territories with a heavy barrage of missiles, among which were Meron Base, Naftali Ze’ev artillery position, Zaitoun Base and Yardan Base in Golan Heights.
