Representatives of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution and the Islamic Republic of Iran, Sayyed Ali Khamenei, are attending the funeral procession of Hezbollah Secretary-Generals Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and his successor Sayyed Hashem Safieddine and read out the Iranian leader's message.
"The great mujahid and leading commander of the Resistance in the region, Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah (may God elevate his status), is now at a position that is the height of honor," the message read.
"His pure body will be laid to rest in the land of jihad for the sake of God, but his spirit and his path will shine more gloriously each day, God willing, illuminating the way for those who follow him," it added.
Sayyed Khamenei stressed, "Let the enemy be aware that resistance against usurpation, oppression, and arrogance will never end and will continue until the ultimate goal is reached, by the will of God."
"May the greetings of God and His righteous servants be upon these two honorable mujahids; as well as on the other courageous, self-sacrificing fighters who have recently attained martyrdom," the Iranian leader said.
The delegation representing Sayyed Khamenei arrived in Beirut earlier to attend the funeral of Hezbollah's two leaders.
It included Houjjat al-Islams Mohammad Hassan Akhtari, Sayyed Mojtaba Hosseini, Mohsen Qomi, and Sayyed Reza Taghavi.
Today, the official funeral ceremonies for Sayyed Nasrallah and Sayyed Safieddine commenced at Camille Chamoun Sports City in the capital, Beirut, at 1:00 p.m.
