Lebanon's powerful Hezbollah movement on Wednesday blasted French weekly Charlie Hebdo's new cartoon as "very offensive", warning it will lead to more "terrorism and extremism".
"What the French magazine did again is very offensive to the feelings of more than 1.5 billion Muslims across the world, and to all those who follow monotheistic religions," said Hezbollah in a statement.
"It is an act that contributes directly to supporting terrorism, extremism and fundamentalists," it added.
