Hezbollah mourned on Saturday Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah who embraced martyrdom in the Israeli strike on Beirut’s southern suburb, Dahiyeh, on Friday.
The Lebanese resistance group’s Media Relations announced Sayyed Nasrallah’s martyrdom as it published the following statement:
His eminence, master of the resistance, the righteous servant, has passed away as a great martyr, leader, hero, wise and faithful. He joined the convoy of martyrs of the eternal luminous Karbala in this divine path which echoes the path of martyred prophets and Imams.
Sayyed Nasrallah joined his martyred comrades whom his eminence led throughout 30 years from a victory to another. He succeeded his predecessor, the Master of Islamic Resistance’s martyrs (Sayed Abbas Al-Moussawi) in 1992, until the 2000 Liberation and the Divine Victory in 2006 as well as all the battles of dignity and loyalty, reaching the heroic battle in support of Gaza, Palestine and the oppressed Palestinian people.
We offer condolences to the Master of the Age, Imam Mahdi (may Allah hasten his reappearance), Supreme Leader Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei, our great scholars, nation of resistance, the patient people of Lebanon, the entire Muslim Ummah (nation), the free people across the world and his noble family.
We extend our congratulations to his eminence, Sayyed Nasrallah, as he received the highest divine awards, award of Imam Hussein (A.S.), fulfilling his most precious wishes and the highest levels of faith and pure belief, a Martyr All the Way to Al-Quds and Palestine. We also offer condolences over martyrdom of his companions who joined his blessed convoy due to the treacherous Zionist raid in Beirut’s southern suburb (Dahiyeh).
Hezbollah’s leadership promises the uppermost, most sacred and most precious martyr to continue the path of jihad against the enemy, in support of Gaza and Palestine, and in defense of Lebanon and its steadfast and honorable people.
And to the honorable mujahideen (fighters) and the victorious heroes of the Islamic Resistance, we say you represent the will of the martyred Sayyed. You are his brothers who have been his impregnable shield and the jewel in the crown of heroism and sacrifice. Our leader, his eminence, is still among us with his thought, spirit, and sacred path, and you (the fighters) will remain committed to the pledge of loyalty, resistance and sacrifice until victory.
