Seyyed Hassan Khomeini made the remark as he visited the office of Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement in Tehran on Tuesday to offer his condolences to the group’s representatives over the martyrdom of Nasrallah.
After this incident, a new era will begin for Hezbollah, he said, offering condolences and reaffirming support for the Lebanese resistance movement.
The reputed scholar futher hoped that the martyrdom of Nasrallah at the brutal hands of the Israeli regime will strenthen the axis of resistence and made them stonger than ever before.
"The loss is enormous, and naturally, in such bitter incidents, the thing that can give hope to the hearts more than anything else is the grace of God and the dignity that emerges from such incidents."
Seyyed Hassan Khomeini also pointed to brutal and wolf-like nature of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu which has committed campaign of genocide in Gaza and Lebanon and elsewhere across the region. He emphasized that the regime must be confronted and should be held accountable for its crimes.
Nasrallah was martyred on Friday after the Israeli regime bombarded a Beirut suburb using US-provided weapons and munitions.
The assassination came as part of the regime’s escalation against Hezbollah. Hundreds of people have been killed across the country since last week.
Israel has been targeting Lebanon since October 2023, when it launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.
Hezbollah has been responding to the aggression with numerous retaliatory operations, including one with a hypersonic ballistic missile, targeting the occupied Palestinian territories.
The Lebanese resistance movement has vowed to keep up its operations against Israel as long as the Israeli regime continues its Gaza war, which has so far killed more than 41, 615 Palestinians, mostly women and children.
Nasrallah was elected Secretary General of Hezbollah in 1992 at the age of 32 after an Israeli helicopter gunship assassinated his predecessor, Sayyed Abbas al-Musawi.
