Hezbollah and the resistance supporters held on Thursday a massive funeral in Beirut’s Dahiyeh to mourn the senior commander Fuad Shokr assassinated Tuesday in an Israeli airstrike on a residential building in Haret Hreik.
At 15:00 (Beirut time), mourners offered condolences at Sayyed Al-Shuhada Complex on the martyr’s demise before Hezbollah secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah addressed the mourners.
Vowing an “inevitable retaliation”, Sayyed Nasrallah stressed that the war against the Zionist entity and its backers has entered a new phase as the enemies have crossed the red lines.
A group of the Islamic Resistance fighters greeted the martyr and reiterated allegiance to the jihadi path of Hezbollah.
Head of Hezbollah Executive Council Sayyed Hashem Safieddine led the death prayer before the body of the martyr was raised by the resistance fighters amid the crowds mourning the commander.
The participants chanted slogans that voice support to the resistance and denounce the Israeli criminality before the martyr was laid to rest at Al-Hawraa Zainab (A.S.) Cemetery in Ghobeiry.
