tehran: Hezbollah Chief Hassan Nasrallah was killed in an Israeli attack in Lebanon on Friday. Shortly after this attack, the Israeli army claimed that it had killed Nasrallah. Hezbollah confirmed Nasrallah’s death on Saturday, a day after the attack. This information was given on Lebanese TV after Hezbollah’s statement; an anchor cried in a live show while telling this news.
A news anchor for Lebanon’s Al-Mayadeen television began crying as she reported the death of 64-year-old Nasrallah in an Israeli airstrike in Lebanon. The anchor tried to control himself several times in the show, but when Nasrallah’s name came up, his voice began to choke and it became difficult for him to control himself. Al-Mayadeen is considered a pro-Hezbollah channel.
Mass support for Nasrallah in Lebanon
Hezbollah has been declared a terrorist organization by many countries of the world, but this group and Nasrallah have a good hold in Lebanon. After the news of Nasrallah’s death, hundreds of people took to the streets of Lebanon to express their grief. On Saturday, women were seen crying in Beirut remembering Nasrallah.
Nasrallah took over the leadership of Hezbollah in 1992, after which Hezbollah became not only a military force in Lebanon but also a major political force. Under the leadership of Nasrallah, Hezbollah fought many battles against Israel, in which it achieved some successes, which increased its stature.
Nasrallah was considered a close ally of Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Hezbollah had long been the center of the axis of resistance against Israel and the US in the region. Nasrallah was the target of the Israeli army for a long time. That’s why he was not seen in public, was seen only on TV.
