Hezbollah on Saturday confirmed the martyrdom of its popular secretary general.
It said that Nasrallah has achieved martyrdom in massive Israeli airstrikes targeting residential buildings in southern Beirut.
“His Eminence, the Master of Resistance, the righteous servant, has joined his Lord and His pleasure as a great martyr — an outstanding, courageous, wise, and insightful leader — joining the ranks of the radiant martyrs of Karbala in the divine journey of faith, following in the footsteps of the prophets and martyr imams,” the statement said.
The Lebanese Amal movement offered condolences on the martyrdom of the great resistance figure, describing him as a sincere leader who had no fear of anyone in defending the truth, freedom, and liberation of Lebanon and Palestine.
It added that Nasrallah’s martyrdom will not deter resistance forces from continuing the path of victory and confrontation with the Zionist terrorism.
Ziyad al-Nakhalah, teh secretary general of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement, commemorated Nasrallah, whose great achievements will remain in Lebanon and the region.
“We are certain that the combatant brothers of Sayed Hassan Nasrallah in Hezbollah will continue his path and raise the flag of resistance in the holy city of al-Quds, God willing,” he added.
