The al-Qaeda-linked Abdullah Azzam Brigades, whose leader Majed al-Majed died earlier this month, vowed Tuesday to keep up its attacks against Iran, Hezbollah and Israel.
The Saudi-born Majed, which claimed responsibility for a November attack on the Iranian embassy in Beirut that killed at least 23 people, died after his arrest by Lebanese authorities.
"His project will continue, God willing, in striking Iran, its party (Hezbollah) and the aggressor Jews (Israel), and in defending oppressed Sunnis everywhere," the group said in an online statement.
