Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has said that Syrian President Bashar Assad and his regime will not fall, as it would also mean the fall of Hezbollah and the so-called axis of resistance, Lebanese newspaper Al Akhbar, a Hezbollah mouthpiece, reported Tuesday.

The Lebanese-based organization has strong ties to the Syrian regime, and has dispatched its own fighters to join Assad's battle against Syrian opposition forces seeking to oust him.
