In 2017, the U.S. State Department designated him a terrorist, and in June he threatened a serious escalation against Israel after the assassination of another Hezbollah commander. "Let them get ready to cry and sob," he said at the funeral.

"Safiyeddine's public statements often reflect Hezbollah's militant stance and its connection to the Palestinian cause. At a recent event in Dahi, a Hezbollah stronghold in the southern suburbs of Beirut, he stated: "Our history, our weapons, and our rockets are with you," in a show of solidarity with the Palestinians," the journalists write.
