BEIRUT, July 12 (Xinhua) -- Hezbollah Leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said on Friday that "Hezbollah is capable of destroying Israel if it dares to attack Lebanon," Al Manar TV Channel reported.

"Israel is well aware that any possible war would bring it to the brink of extinction," Nasrallah said in an interview held on the occasion of the 13th anniversary of the start of the 34-day war that took place in the summer of 2006.

Nasrallah said that Hezbollah's power has increased tremendously since the Israeli war against Lebanon in 2006.

Nasrallah added that "Israel does not dare to attack Lebanon because it does not have enough land power while it knows very well that air forces are not capable to achieve a victory without a big support by ground forces."
