Iran Press/Middle East: "We condemn and deny the US move and voice our support to our friends at the IRGC," Seyyed Nasrallah said in a televised speech during a ceremony commemorating Wounded Resistance Fighter Day held on Wednesday afternoon.
US audacity and folly went beyond limits when it classified the Revolutionary Guards in Iran as a terrorist organization, Hezbollah leader added, according to Iran Press.
US President Donald Trump on Monday released a statement, designating the IRGC as “a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) under Section 219 of the Immigration and Nationality Act.”
Referring to the timing of IRGC designation, Seyyed Nasrallah noted that the US humiliates a whole nation for the sake of terrorist Israel and terrorist groups which it’s providing all facilities to them.
Elsewhere in his remarks, the secretary general of the Lebanese Hezbollah warned US president Donald Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and their mercenaries to wait for their new defeat as in all previous times.
The provocative American policy of sedition in Lebanon continues despite the failure of US secretary of state Mike Pompeo’s visit to this country, he added.
The resistance axis has many powerful cards to respond to US sanctions and measures, Seyyed Nasrallah said condemning US move of blacklisting Hezbollah allies in Lebanon as "just a scarecrow till now". 101
