<p>Describing Mubarak&#8217;s resignation as an &#8220;historic victory” for  Egyptians, Hezbollah said on Friday that the movement strongly supports  the Egyptian Revolution.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hezbollah congratulates the great people of Egypt on this historic  and honorable victory, which is a direct result of their pioneering  revolution,&#8221; Hezbollah said in a statement</p>
<p>&#8220;It is the unity the people showed in this revolution, women and  men, children and adults, which marked the triumph of blood over the  sword,&#8221; it added.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hezbollah is filled with pride over the achievements of the Egyptian Revolution.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hezbollah has invited its supporters to join in a mass celebration.</p>
<p>Hundreds of Lebanese also took to the streets of the capital Beirut  following Mubarak&#8217;s resignation and celebrated the occasion by waving  Egyptian flags and with fireworks.</p>
<p>Crowds also gathered outside the Egyptian Embassy in Beirut and  voiced their support for the new leadership in Egypt. There were also  reports of celebrations in other Lebanese cities, including the northern  port city of Tripoli.</p>
<p>On Friday, after 18 days of massive anti-Mubarak protests across  Egypt, the Egyptian leader finally stepped down and handed power to the  military after 30 years.</p>
<p>However, The transition of power to the military comes while  Mubarak, Vice President Omar Suleiman and Prime Minister Ahmad Shafiq  are all former military men. Analysts believe despite the transition  Mubarak would still remain in power.</p>
