(June 21, 2026 / JNS) The Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorist organization is a “malignant cancer,” U.S. Ambassador the Israel Mike Huckabee said on Sunday, noting they killed hundreds of Americans.

“The U.S. designates Hezbollah as a terror organization,” Huckabee wrote on X. “They are common enemy of Lebanon & Israel.”

“They occupy civilian homes in Lebanon to store weapons & fire drones & rockets into civilian targets in Israel. Evil,” the envoy added.
