Hezbollah Secretary General Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah says he does not believe Israel will attack Iran in the “foreseeable future,” warning that Tehran’s response to any potential assault will anyway be “great.”

Nasrallah on Monday in an interview with the Beirut-based al-Mayadeen television on Monday said: “Personally, I do not expect the Israeli enemy - at least in the coming months or foreseeable future - (to wage) an attack on the Islamic Republic of Iran.”

"A decision has been taken to respond and the response will be very great," he added.

"The response will not be just inside the Israeli entity - American bases in the whole region could be Iranian targets… If Israel targets Iran, America bears responsibility,” the Hezbollah leader said.

Nasrallah added that there were disagreements among Israeli officials over attacking Iran's nuclear facilities.
