During an on-camera interview with Al Jazeera, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi reaffirmed Iran's unwavering support for its proxy groups, stating that Iran will support them 'however necessary' and stand 'strongly by the resistance.'

Araghchi emphasized Iran's commitment to supporting the resistance during a recent visit to Beirut, where he met with Hezbollah and Lebanese officials. He made it clear that Iran will not back down from its support for groups like Hezbollah and Hamas, which are engaged in conflict with Israel.

Iran's backing of Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon has intensified tensions with Israel. Recent events, including the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and Hamas' leader Ismail Haniyeh, have further escalated the situation.
