Al-Sudani also mourned Nasrallah’s assassination in a later statement, saying, “In a new sinful attack and a crime that confirms the Zionist entity’s crossing of all red lines, the Secretary-General of the Lebanese Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, has ascended as a martyr on the path of truth .”
He added, “The criminal act that targeted the southern suburb yesterday expresses the reckless desire to expand the conflict, at the expense of all the peoples of the region and their security and stability .”
Al-Sudani renewed his warning and emphasis, “On the responsibility of the international and UN organizations, the permanent members of the UN Security Council, and all countries with influence in the region, to deter aggression and stop the ethnic genocide of the Palestinians that the occupation has been practicing for decades, and has been practicing horribly since last October against our people in Gaza, and has recently extended to try to harm our brotherly Lebanese people, so it persisted in random killing until hundreds of innocent Lebanese were martyred in a few days, so in whose interest is the aggression expanding? “
Earlier yesterday, Saturday, the Lebanese Hezbollah mourned the Secretary-General of the party, Hassan Nasrallah, confirming what the Israeli army announced in this regard .
Israeli army spokesman Avichay Adraee had previously announced that the raid that targeted the southern suburb of Beirut on Friday resulted in the assassination of Hassan Nasrallah .
