May 27, 2006
Hizbullah condemned the crime of assassinating a senior Islamic Jihad member Abou Hamza Al Majzoub and his brother Nidal. It said in a statement: "Holding the Zionist enemy the full liability of this crime, we see it comes in the context of the "Israeli" war and aggression against the Palestinian people and its steadfast resistance".
"Once again, this crime reveals the extent of the "Israeli" security breach of the Lebanese arena and its implied dangers and targets where the crime is not but an example of the "Israeli" aggression and violation of Lebanon and its integrity," it added.
The statement reported: "Hizbullah offered its condolences to Islamic Jihad Movement adding that the path of Jihad they tracked is replete with sacrifices and heroes` blood that Mujahedeen expect such honored martyrdom."
"However, such "Israeli" crimes will not deter them from performing their national and religious duties against the occupation," the statement concluded.
