Hezbollah leader warns US threats against Iran's leader could spark wider conflict

The leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, has issued a series of warnings about escalating tensions between the US and Iran. He said that threats from President Donald Trump against Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, are a provocation that his group has a duty to confront.

Nasrallah also claimed that Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu orchestrated recent deadly riots in Iran to destabilize the country. However, Hezbollah has reportedly told foreign diplomats that it will not attack US or Israeli targets unless Iran's leadership faces an 'existential danger'.
