Hezbollah
Hezbollah is a Shiite militant group and political party based in Lebanon, which was founded in the early 1980s with the support of Iran. It is known for its military operations against Israel and its role in Lebanese politics, where it maintains significant influence. The group has been designated as a terrorist organization by several countries, including the United States and Israel. Hezbollah has been involved in numerous conflicts and has garnered a reputation for its strong social services within Lebanon. Recently, the group has been in the news due to its supporters' protests against the Lebanese government's decision to prevent an Iranian plane from landing in Beirut, leading to tensions with the Lebanese military and UN peacekeeping forces.
