Hezbollah leader Nasrallah meets with Palestinian Islamic Jihad
The sit-down comes as Iran is calling for unity among Palestinian factions.
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah met with Ziyad al-Nakhalah of Palestinian Islamic Jihad in Lebanon today. The two discussed the recent war between the Gaza-based Palestinian armed group and Israel.
“Sayyed Nasrallah and Nakhale tackled the latest developments in Gaza and West Bank, and assessed the battle which took place with the Israeli enemy on all levels: military, politics and media,” Hezbollah said in a statement, according to its media channel Al-Manar.
The two also discussed unspecified regional issues, as well as the “expected roles” by different members of the “resistance,” according to the outlet.
Though Palestinian Islamic Jihad primarily operates in the Gaza Strip, Nakhalah is reportedly based in Beirut.
