President Raisi Was A Mujahid, Hezbollah Chief Says
Sayed Hassan Nasrallah on Monday offered condolences to the Leader of the Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei and the Iranian leadership and people for the martyrdom of President Raisi and his comrades.
In the message, addressed to the Leader on behalf of Hezbollah, its Resistance fighters, the families of its martyrs and wounded, and the supporters of the Resistance, Nasrallah said, “We share all the feelings and ramifications of the loss of these honorable leaders at this sensitive stage as you lead the Islamic nation in its bitter struggle with the forces of arrogance and hegemony.”
He said that President Raisi was "A Mujahid (one who fights on the path of God) and a loyal servant," and his foreign minister, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, “carried the banner of defending the resistance in all international forums.”
“To us, and to all the oppressed, the resistance fighters, and the fighters on the path of righteousness, we extend our condolences and hope in your blessed presence, wise, guided, and courageous leadership,” Nasrallah added.
“I ask Allah Almighty to prolong your noble life and to strengthen your pure heart to bear the pain of losing these loyal and sincere leaders, and to bestow patience, solace, and great reward upon their noble and honorable families, our dear and great Iranian people, and all the esteemed officials of the Islamic Republic, God willing,” he stressed.
