Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said Monday that his group will prevent to use weapons in the internal disputes.
"The resistance weapons are directed towards the enemy," Nasrallah addressed at the occasion of the "resistance liberation anniversary," which marks the Israeli withdrawal from south Lebanon in June 2000.
He said he accepts what was agreed on in Doha concerning the prohibition of using arms for political gains.
In a warning tone to the Lebanese leaders who are calling for disarming Hezbollah, Nasrallah said "the arms of the state should not be used against any opposition party or for external projects that weakens Lebanon," making it more clear by saying that "the state arms should not target the resistance and its arms."
