The leader of Hezbollah , Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah, in a speech Wednesday, threatened that Cyprus could become a target if it allowed Israel to use its territory in any conflict.
Cyprus and Israel have a bilateral defence cooperation agreement which has seen the countries conduct joint exercises.
“Opening Cypriot airports and bases to the Israeli enemy to target Lebanon would mean that the Cypriot government is part of the war, and the resistance will deal with it as part of the war,” the Hezbollah chief said.
KAN's Mark Weiss spoke with Michael Hariri, Israel’s former ambassador to Cyprus ,and now a Policy Fellow at the Mitvim, the Israel Institute for Regional Foreign Policies.
