Beirut: The deputy chief of Lebanon's armed group Hezbollah is currently addressing the country for the first time since the killing of the group's secretary general in an Israeli air attack on Friday. During his address on Monday, Dy chief Naim Qaseem pledged to continue attacking Israel despite the losses that occurred in the past two weeks-- from pager explosions to the killing of Hezbollah's chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah in Lebanon.

"Group has lost a brother, a leader...', Qaseem said. "Will continue operation despite pager attacks, loss of commanders, loss of Nasrallah," he added.

Hezbollah has continued to fire rockets and missiles into northern Israel, but most have been intercepted or fallen in open areas. No Israelis have been killed since the latest wave of strikes on top Hezbollah leaders began on September 20.
