Beirut: The chief commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Quds Force, Brigadier General Esmaeil Qa'ani, has issued a stark warning to the Israeli regime, urging them to withdraw from Lebanon voluntarily or face being expelled in what he described as a 'shame and humiliating defeat.'

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, Brigadier General Qa'ani, in a message directed at the Zionist occupiers, emphasized the resolve and spirit of those opposing the Israeli presence. He referenced the historical and spiritual significance of Ashura and Karbala, drawing parallels between the current resistance and the enduring legacy of Hussain. He stressed that the land of Lebanon is synonymous with steadfastness and resistance, not a territory for occupiers to exploit.

Brigadier General Qa'ani further highlighted the need for Israel to heed his warning, referencing the year 2000 and the influential words of Martyr Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah in Bint Jbeil. He reminded Israel of past defeats and the living promise that history could repeat itself if they choose not to leave Lebanon willingly.
