Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah stressed on Wednesday (19/6) that if Cyprus continued to allow Israel to use its airports and bases for military purposes, it would mean that it “has become part of the war” and Hezbollah “will deal with it” accordingly.

The Hezbollah chief warned that they would fight “without rules” and “without limits” in the event of a wider war with Israel and that nowhere in Israel would be safe from Hezbollah attacks.

He also said in a televised address, according to Reuters, that potential targets in the Mediterranean Sea were included. Nasrallah additionally threatened Cyprus for the first time, saying Hezbollah could consider it “part of the war.”
