Statement issued by Hezbollah

To the most honorable people,
To the patient, steadfast, and sacrificing people of the Resistance,
To the people of the resilient South, the towering Bekaa, and the proud Dahiyeh...
We stand today on the threshold of a great historical victory, which will be achieved thanks to the sacrifices of the Mujahideen, the blood of the martyrs, and your unparalleled steadfastness and patience.
In these fateful moments, we call upon you for further patience, steadfastness, and waiting. We urge you not to head toward the targeted villages, towns, and areas in the South, the Bekaa, and the Southern Suburbs of Beirut (Dahiyeh) before the final official announcement of the ceasefire in Lebanon is issued. This treacherous and barbaric enemy, seeking to escape the image of its defeat, may resort to acts of treachery to create an illusory scene suggesting it achieved an accomplishment it could not attain on the battlefield.
God willing, you will soon return to your villages and homes—proud, with heads held high, dignified, and victorious, as you have always been.
