Hezbollah plans strike against Israel but war unlikely - deputy chief

Hezbollah's deputy leader Sheikh Naim Qassem has said the Iran-backed movement will retaliate against Israel after two drones crashed in Beirut, but a new war between the two enemies remains unlikely.

"I rule out that the atmosphere is one of war, it is one of a response to an attack," he told Russia's RT Arabic channel in an interview on Tuesday night. "Everything will be decided at its time."
