Barakat points out that "Hezbollah has begun to try to reconsider its political discourse, as it cannot continue as it was, whatever the outcome of this military battle."
For Iran, Hezbollah is considered a backbone of its influence in the region, and Iranian officials have always talked about their continued support for it.

Articles237The forgotten war.. the worst humanitarian disasterThe Sudanese war has completed a year and a half, without any sign of peace on the horizon to stop it, with the insistence of the army and rapid support forces on a military solution, which the military movement map confirms is impossible in reality!
This is the reality in many areas of Sudan that the war has reached.
Another 3 million have fled to neighboring countries such as Chad, South Sudan, Egypt, Libya, the Central African Republic and Ethiopia. Some travel illegally, where they risk dying of thirst in the desert, or fall prey to human traffickers.
While pregnant and lactating women do not find adequate and sufficient food or any kind of health care, even during childbirth sometimes!
Other wars, the Ukrainian, Gaza and Lebanon wars, have covered up the news of the Sudanese war, and perhaps the reason is also due to its definition according to international law, which calls it a non-international armed conflict, as the sons of one country fight and the Sudanese citizen is lost, who has no power or strength!
