Delhi: Iran And Palestine Representatives Condole Hezbollah Leader

The India Islamic Cultural Centre in Delhi recently hosted a condolence meeting to honor Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike the previous week. This event attracted significant attention, with notable figures such as Iraj Elahi, the Iranian Ambassador to India, and Adnan Abu Al-Hija, the Palestinian Ambassador, both delivering impassioned speeches.

Ambassador Al-Hija characterized Nasrallah as a “resistance leader,” highlighting his role in defending Lebanon and the Palestinian cause against what he described as the “war criminal regime” of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He labeled Netanyahu’s government as “extremist” and emphasized Hezbollah’s substantial political and military presence in Lebanon. Al-Hija noted that Hezbollah is a key component of an Iran-supported Axis of Resistance, which also encompasses the Palestinian militant group Hamas, reinforcing the complex alliances in the region.
