The Lebanese Shiite movement Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for the October 19 attack on the home of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Mohammed Afif, the chief of the organization's information service, told a news conference in Beirut, APA reports citing TASS.
"The Islamic Resistance takes full and exclusive responsibility for the operation in Caesarea and the attack on the home of war criminal Netanyahu," said Afif, whose speech was broadcast by the Al Mayadeen TV. He added that although the attempt to assassinate the Israeli prime minister had failed Hezbollah would not stop.
Afif also vowed that the movement had regained "a significant share of its capacity" and intended to intensify attacks on areas in the north and central part of the Jewish state.
