Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian says the international community will not forget that the order for Israel\u2019s terrorist act to assassinate Secretary General of the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah was issued from New York. In a statement on Saturday, Hezbollah confirmed the martyrdom of its leader in massive Israeli airstrikes targeting a group of residential buildings in southern Beirut on Friday. The attacks took place as the Israeli regime’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu was addressing the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York. According to Iranian media, in a message of condolences on Saturday, Pezeshkian said the United States cannot absolve itself of complicity with the Zionists in the terror attack against the Hezbollah chief. He added that Israel\u2019s Friday terrorist attack on the Dahiyeh area in the south of Lebanon\u2019s capital Beirut and the martyrdom of prominent figures of the resistance movement, particularly Nasrallah, will further strengthen the \u201ctree of resistance.” The Iranian president noted that the Hezbollah leader was the pride of Muslims and the symbol of resistance and finally achieved his long-standing dream \u2013 martyrdom. Pezeshkian said words cannot describe his bravery and continuous efforts to fight the enemies and added that Hezbollah will further shine after Nasrallah\u2019s assassination. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the Israeli regime must watch in fear as the impact of Nasrallah\u2019s blood leads to an even greater expansion of resistance This is not the first time that the Israeli regime assassinated Hezbollah leaders and commanders but the \u201ctree of resistance\u201d will not stop growing, the top Iranian diplomat emphasized. Araghchi expressed confidence that the \u201cpure blood of the martyrs of the resistance will prepare the ground for the final victory and the liberation of Holy al-Quds\u201d from the Zionist criminals. Earlier on Saturday, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei said the brutal attacks by the \u201crabid Zionist dog\u201d on Lebanon revealed the shortsightedness and foolish policies of Israeli officials, calling on all Muslims to unite behind Lebanese people and Hezbollah.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
