Hezbollah is the main political party in Lebanon. Anything can be related to the main political party of a country. It's like saying you can legally kill Israeli medics because they are "related to Likud".

In any case, killing medics is a violation of the Hague and Geneva conventions and the internal law.

If this story is hard for you to take seriously, there's thousands more stories, videos and witnessings of war crimes by Israel in very recent history..

Just worth clearing the point about Hezbollah in that context.

Hezbollah is not the “main” political party [1]

It is a major part of the government but not the main.

1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_political_parties_in_L...

If they were the main party then it was Lebanon who attacked Israel following the war with Iran and not Hezbollah.

Lebanon is very pragmatic already and they actually have an army which isn’t Hezbollah.

My bad, should have put "one of the main political parties". Good correction, thank you.
