The leader of the Iran-allied Hezbollah militia, Naim Qassem, has said his group plans “high-level coordination” with the Lebanese army to implement a ceasefire deal with Israel that began on Wednesday.
“Coordination between the resistance and the Lebanese army will be of a high level to implement obligations of the agreement,” Qassem said in a televised statement on Friday.
“The agreement was concluded with full respect for Lebanese sovereignty. We agreed to it with our heads held high in our right to self-defence.”

Qassem claimed his militia has achieved a “big victory” in its latest war with Israel.
“We are in front of a big victory that transcends the victory of the July 2006, given the length of the duration, the ferocity of the battle and enormity of sacrifices,” he said, referring to a 2006 war between Hezbollah and Israel.
The ongoing ceasefire is designed to put an end to the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah that began more than one year ago.
