What does Hezbollah want?

Hezbollah’s leader has a message for Israel and so does America’s top diplomat.

Today eyes were on two men who have the power to shape what happens next - possibly how this might all end. Neither of them from Israel. Neither of them from Gaza.

Lyse speaks to Paul Adams about what we learnt from US Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s latest visit to Israel and from Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah’s first public comments since the start of the conflict

Paul also explains the history of Hezbollah and what the group, which is proscribed as a terrorist organisation, by the UK, US and Israel, wants.
