The funeral for martyred Hezbollah leader Hashem Safieddine is held as his body is transferred to his final resting place in his hometown of Deir Qanoun al-Nahr in south Lebanon, on February 24, 2025.

Lebanon’s Hezbollah residence movement announced that Safieddine, who, before his martyrdom, had been head of the Executive Council of Hezbollah, will be buried in his hometown of Deir Qanoun al-Naher in southern Lebanon on Monday.

In an address to the mourners, the representative of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei reaffirmed the support of Iranian nation and government for the Lebanese people and the resistance.

Sheikh Mohammad Hassan Akhtari vowed that Iran will continue standing by the Lebanese people in face of the ‘Israeli’ regime.

Mourners gathered at a stadium in the Lebanese capital on Sunday for the funeral ceremony of Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and Safieddinel.

An estimated 1.4 million people, including delegations from nearly 70 countries, participated in the funeral procession.

Israel assassinated Nasrallah on September 27, 2024, and Safieddine on October 3 the same year.
