In a letter recited by Ayatollah Husseini, Imam Khamenei paid tribute to Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah, describing him as 'a great mujahid and a pioneering resistance leader in the region.' His eminence declared that 'Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah (God bless his soul) has now reached the pinnacle of honor. His pure body is laid to rest in the land of jihad for the sake of Allah, but his soul and his path will shine ever brighter with each passing day, illuminating the way for those who follow.'
Addressing the Israeli enemy, Imam Khamenei affirmed that 'resistance against oppression, tyranny, and arrogance will endure and will not cease until the ultimate goal is achieved, God willing.'
He also honored martyred Secretary General Sayyed Hashem Safieddine, saying, 'His blessed name and luminous face will remain a shining star in the history of this region. He was a loyal and devoted supporter, an inseparable part of the leadership of the resistance in Lebanon.'
Imam Khamenei concluded his letter with a heartfelt tribute: 'May the peace of Allah and His righteous servants be upon these two towering fighters and upon all the courageous resistance fighters who have recently risen as martyrs, as well as upon all the martyrs of Islam. I send my special greetings to you, my dear sons, the valiant youth of Lebanon.'
Meanwhile, the custodians of the shrine of Imam Reza (AS), the eighth Shiite Imam, presented the shrine's flag to the officials responsible for the shrine of Hezbollah's martyred Secretary General, Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah, ahead of the funeral procession at Beirut's Camille Chamoun Sports City Stadium.
In parallel, the funeral ceremony is being broadcast live at Imam Reza's shrine in Mashhad, where dozens of Iranians have gathered to pay their respects to the two revered martyrs.

Netanyahu Says Significant Progress Made in Talks to Release Hostages

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday that there had been "significant progress" in efforts to secure the release of the remaining hostages in Gaza, but that it was "too soon" to raise hopes that a deal would be reached. Despite efforts by the United States, Egypt and Qatar to restore a ceasefire in Gaza, neither Israel nor Hamas has shown willingness to back down on core demands, with each side blaming the other for the failure to reach a deal. Netanyahu, who has come under pressure from within his right-wing coalition to continue the war and block humanitarian aid from entering Gaza, said in a video statement shared by his office that there had been progress, without providing details. A source familiar with the negotiations said that Washington had been giving Hamas more assurances, in the form of steps that would lead to an end to the war, but said it was U.S. officials who were optimistic, not Israeli ones. The source said there was pressure from Washington to have a deal done as soon as possible. The White House National Security Council and representatives for U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, who is leading U.S. efforts in the ceasefire talks, did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Neither did Hamas representatives. Israel's leadership has said that it would wage war until the remaining 55 hostages held in Gaza are freed and when Hamas, whose October 2023 attack sparked the war, has been dismantled. Hamas, which has ruled Gaza since 2007, has said it would no longer govern after the war if a Palestinian, non-partisan technocratic committee took over, but it has refused to disarm. The U.S. has proposed a 60-day ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. Israel said it would abide by the terms but Hamas has sought amendments. The militants have said that they would release all hostages in exchange for a permanent end to the war. The war in Gaza has raged since Hamas-led militants killed 1,200 people in Israel in the October 2023 attack and took 251 hostages back to the enclave, according to Israeli tallies. Israel responded with a military campaign that has killed over 54,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza health authorities.
