The Leader of the Islamic Revolution and the Islamic Republic of Iran, Sayyed Ali Khamenei, praised the late Hezbollah Secretary-General, martyr Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah for his courage and strategic foresight, which led to the Lebanese Resistance group's remarkable strength and influence.
During a meeting with members of the Assembly of Experts on Thursday, Sayyed Khamenei highlighted that "Hezbollah experienced extraordinary growth thanks to Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah's reliance on God and his courage, wisdom, and patience."
Hezbollah became a force that the enemy could not defeat, despite all its material, media, and political resources, Sayyed Khamenei underscored.
He emphasized that Sayyed Nasrallah has "left behind a lasting legacy which is Hezbollah," which, over the past four decades, has transformed from a small group of fighters into a mighty power that has forced the Israeli occupation regime to withdraw from Lebanese territory on multiple occasions.
Sayyed Khamenei underlined that anyone who believes that the Lebanese group has been weakened is mistaken, vowing that the world will witness how the Israeli occupation entity will receive a blow from these Resistance fighters.
“The enemy has been unable to overcome this organization, and God willing, it will not be able to do so. The world and the region will one day witness that the Zionist regime will clearly be defeated at the hands of these fighters struggling in the path of God," he said.
The Iranian leader also noted the significant achievements of the Palestinian Resistance against "Israel", noting that the movement "managed to gain victory against Zionist regime 9 times since 2009."
Despite extensive support from the United States and Western nations, Sayyed Ali Khamenei pointed out that "Israel" has failed to dismantle the Hamas movement, resorting instead to killing thousands of innocent people and exposing its ugly face to the world.
"Hamas is still fighting. It is still waging a struggle. This means the defeat of the Zionist regime," he stressed.
Sayyed Khamenei honored the memory of martyrs Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, senior Hezbollah official Sayyed Hashem Safieddine, Hamas leaders Ismail Haniyeh and Yahya Sinwar, and IRGC General Abbas Nilforoushan.
Elsewhere, the Iranian leader said that given the growth, dynamism, and unwavering resistance demonstrated by Hamas and Hezbollah, along with their victories over the past decades, the recent developments will undoubtedly lead to the triumph of the Resistance Front.
