Hezbollah vows to keep its weapons
The leader of Hezbollah, under international pressure to disarm, vowed today to fight anyone who tries to take away its weapons – which include more than 12,000 rockets capable of hitting northern Israel.
Sheik Hassan Nasrallah stressed that the weapons in the guerrillas’ possession are needed for the defence of Lebanon. Hezbollah is willing to discuss the status of its weapons, Nasrallah added.
