Al Mayadeen aired this footage during an interview with Member of Parliament Hassan Fadlallah, titled Al-Ameen Al-Hashemi. In the interview, Fadlallah discussed aspects of the martyred leader’s personality.

Following his martyrdom in an intense Israeli air raid in early October 2024, Sayyed Saffiedine’s remains were initially interred in a temporary, undisclosed location. On February 24, 2025, a formal funeral procession was held, after which he was laid to rest in his hometown of Deir Qanun al-Nahr in southern Lebanon, after being transported alongside Sayyed Nasrallah's body in the massive funeral procession held for both leaders on Sunday.
