Head of Loyalty to the Resistance Bloc, MP Mohammad Raad, confirmed during an Iftar in Nabatiyeh Saturday that Hizbullah will not be lenient on any "Israeli" attempt to expropriate Lebanon's gas or oil found in Lebanese territorial waters.

"We are acting responsibly in order to preserve our right to invest in our gas and oil in accordance with international standards, laws and charters," said the MP, "simultaneously, we have the ability to be fully ready to face any attack on our sovereignty and rights."

The MP promised the Lebanese government to put all of the party's potential at its disposal for the protection of country, state and opposition as well.
