Hezbollah chief Nasrallah says Israel crossed ‘red lines’ by detonating electronic devices

Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah on Thursday blamed Israel for the deadly attacks targeting the group’s electronic devices in Lebanon, calling them a “massacre” that crossed a “red line”. In his first speech since the attacks, Nasrallah vowed not to give up “the resistance”. Israeli jets carried out sonic booms over Beirut during the Hezbollah leader’s much-anticipated speech. The Israeli military also launched major strikes in southern Lebanon shortly before his address, sparking fears of a regional escalation despite international calls for calm. Read FRANCE 24's liveblog to see how all the day's events unfolded.
