Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has warned Israel that an "inevitable retaliation" will follow the assassination of key leaders.

Nasrallah said the assassination of Commander Shukr was not a response to the rocket attack on the Druze town of Majdal Shams, but an act of war. He underlined that Hezbollah is paying a price for its support for Gaza and the Palestinian people, but said the organization is looking for a real response, not an artificial one.
