Hezbollah’s Qassem mourns Khamenei, blames US and Israel for ‘criminal aggression’

Hezbollah chief Naim Qassem announced the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, offering condolences and describing his killing as a “martyrdom.”

In a statement, Qassem mourned Khamenei as a religious and political leader who “fell while leading the path of jihad and resistance,” and accused the United States and Israel of carrying out a “criminal aggression” against Iran.

He said Hezbollah would remain committed to Khamenei’s approach, pledging to continue what he described as the path of resistance and confrontation, and vowing not to abandon the struggle despite sacrifices.
