Hezbollah deputy chief Sheikh Naim Qassem recently stated that there will be no general war with Israel in the near future, according to Naharnet.

“The possibilities of expanding the war are absent in the near future,” Qassem said in an interview with Russia’s Sputnik radio station, "But Hezbollah is prepared for the worst scenarios and it does not build its military stance on political analyses but rather on information and the outcome of the battlefield."

Meanwhile, Naharnet also reported that Samir Geagea, leader of the Christian party Lebanese forces, said that although "Hezbollah is in Lebanon but its heart is with Iran," if a general war comes to Lebanon, "we will definitely be on Lebanon's side.”
