Hezbollah has officially announced the “martyrdom” of its leader, Hassan Nasrallah, following recent reports of an Israeli airstrike targeting the group’s headquarters in Beirut. In a statement released by the group, Hezbollah confirmed that Nasrallah was killed during the attack, marking a huge blow to the organization.
Nasrallah had been the face of Hezbollah for decades, widely regarded as a powerful figure in the resistance against Israel. His death is likely to escalate tensions in the region, with supporters vowing to avenge their leader’s assassination.
The announcement has already sparked reactions across Lebanon and beyond, as many mourn the loss of a prominent figure in the fight for Lebanon’s sovereignty.
