Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has said that the Lebanese movement, Hezbollah, has once again shattered the myth of Israel's invincibility, IRNA reports.

The top Iranian diplomat said that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pleaded for a ceasefire after Israel suffered heavy losses in southern Lebanon.

"Over the past year, Netanyahu has milked US taxpayers of tens of billions of dollars to fund his war crimes, all while enjoying full US military support and political cover. He was still forced to plead for a ceasefire, after heavy casualties in southern Lebanon," Araghchi said.

“Hezbollah once again shattered the myth of Israel's invincibility. High time for Israel to accept defeat in Gaza, too” he added.
