Lebanon held a funeral for Hassan Nasrallah, the slain leader of Hezbollah, with massive crowds gathering in Beirut. Nasrallah was killed in September by an Israeli airstrike following Hezbollah's attacks on Israel. The funeral, delayed and well-attended, aimed to demonstrate Hezbollah's enduring strength. Israeli warplanes flew over the funeral, symbolizing a warning to Hezbollah. Iran and other countries sent representatives, with Iranian officials praising Nasrallah as a hero of resistance. Hezbollah's leadership was further weakened as Nasrallah's successor, Hashim Safieddine, was also killed by Israeli airstrikes. Israel conducted additional airstrikes against Hezbollah rocket launchers in southern Lebanon. The event highlighted tensions and the ongoing conflict between Hezbollah and Israel.
