Beirut: Hezbollah has welcomed the Winograd report into the war with Israel, saying it proves the Jewish state suffered a 'blistering defeat'.
The report, commissioned after the 2006 conflict, found it to be a 'big and serious failure\ in which Israel did not achieve its military objectives.
Hezbollah spokesman Hussain Rahal said. "The report confirms what Hezbollah was saying all along: Israel
failed completely in achieving its goals and the Israeli army
suffered a military defeat at the hands of Hezbollah.
"Lebanon managed, despite all its losses, to come out victorious and defeat Israel," he added.
