Beirut airport witnesses exceptional traffic on Sayyed Nasrallah's & Safieddine's funeral
Beirut - Saba:
Beirut International Airport witnessed a heavy movement of arrivals from various Arab countries who came to participate in the funeral of the late Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah and Commander Hashim Safieddine, scheduled for tomorrow, Sunday.
Scenes from inside the airport campus today showed a large crowd as delegations from Algeria and Tunisia, in addition to other Arab countries, arrived to pay their respects and participate in this historic event.
Sheikh Ali Da'adoush, head of the Supreme Committee for funeral ceremonies said: "Lebanon will not be an "Israeli" or Zionist outpost, but will remain a homeland of coexistence, national unity, resistance and national dignity."
He added: "Tomorrow is the day of fulfillment, loyalty and pledge to the martyrs, and we will hear our voice. I am on the covenant, and we will continue this resistance."
He also called for "the widest participation" in the funeral ceremonies, emphasizing that the scene should be "exceptional and inclusive."
Video footage documented the convoys of citizens coming from the Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon to Beirut under difficult weather conditions and snowfall to participate in the funeral on Sunday.
Hezbollah is preparing to hold the funeral of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah on Sunday, almost five months after he was martyred in the southern suburbs of Beirut.
The body of his successor Hashim Safieddine, who was martyred on October 3, 2024, will also be laid to rest.

Yemen's Houthis "warn" companies to leave Israel
The Houthis yesterday renewed their warning to all firms investing in Israel, urging them to leave immediately or risk bearing full responsibility for any potential losses. Mahdi Al-Mashat, president of the Supreme Political Council — the highest governing authority in the Houthi-led administration in Sanaa — called on all companies investing in Israel to take the Yemeni warning seriously and to withdraw quickly, stressing that the environment is no longer safe. His remarks were reported by Houthi-run media. 'Companies that remain in the Zionist entity after our warning will have to bear the consequences of their insistence and be held accountable for any losses they may incur,' he added. 'We may take additional decisions in the coming days, if necessary, which would place investment companies within the Zionist entity at real and serious risk.' 'The disregard shown by some investment firms for our forces' warnings makes their operations inside the entity a dangerous gamble, which could come at a heavy cost,' Al-Mashat added. He accused the Israeli occupation government of failing to protect the interests of private companies, saying: 'The criminal Netanyahu government does not care about the safety of investment companies. It gambles with their security to serve its own interests. A government that ignores the lives of its own captives will certainly not care about the safety of others' companies and investments.'
