Nasrallah: We share Iran’s grief

According to the international group Tasnim news agency, the speech of Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah, Secretary General of Hezbollah in Lebanon, to The commemoration of martyr Ayatollah Ebrahim Raisi, the late president and his companions in the Tabriz helicopter crash, began in Seyed al-Shahada complex in the southern suburbs of Beirut.

The Secretary General of Hezbollah of Lebanon announced by reciting verses from the Quran. First, before starting the ceremony, I must point out two things. We were in the stage of resistance celebrations when we encountered a sad incident and decided not to celebrate.  The 2005 Eid of Resistance was a historic victory for the nation and I congratulate it.

Another point is that we lost Allama Sheikh Ali Al-Kurani and I offer my condolences to his family and relatives. He played a role in the establishment of Hezbollah and the Amal Movement, and next week a ceremony will be held on this occasion.

The Secretary General of Hezbollah explained the incident of the helicopter crash of President Ebrahim Raisi, which resulted in the martyrdom of a group of Iranian officials. It was a very painful and sad incident in Iran and outside of Iran.

Hizbollah Secretary General named all the martyrs of this incident and expressed his condolences to Imam Zaman and Imam Khamenei. We lost great lovers and mujahids at a very critical stage of the conflict with the Zionist enemy and its projects in the region, and today we share the grief of Iran, the Supreme Leader, with the people, government, officials and respected families.

On the afternoon of May 30, the helicopter carrying the President was returning from the opening ceremony of the Qizqala Si Dam, when it crashed in Warzghan region, and Ayatollah Raisi was martyred along with seven other people of his companions, including Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian.
