Nasrallah declares victory for Hezbollah

Nasrallah, speaking on the day a cease-fire took effect — ending 34 days of fighting between Hezbollah and Israel — called Monday "a great day."


"We are today before a strategic, historic victory, without exaggeration," the leader of the Shiite militant group said in a taped speech on Hezbollah's al-Manar TV.


Nasrallah also promised Hezbollah would help the Lebanese people rebuild.


"The enemy destroyed thousands of houses in the south, the Bekaa and the southern suburbs," he said.
