TEHRAN – Iranian lawmakers have stated that the martyrdom of Hezbollah Leader Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah bolsters the anti-Zionist movement and contributes to the decline of this illegitimate regime.

In a statement commemorating the martyrdom of Nasrallah, 1,200 current and former members of Iran’s parliament declared that the noble sacrifice of the Hezbollah chief propels the dismantling of the oppressive Zionist regime.

Nasrallah was assassinated on Friday due to an airstrike carried out by the Israeli regime, which utilized 2000-pound bunker-buster bombs in southern Beirut, resulting in more than 300 civilian casualties. 

The statement reads as follows, 

“We aspire that the noble sacrifice of martyr Nasrallah, along with the esteemed martyrs of Gaza, Lebanon, and other Resistance Forces, will further inspire Muslims and hasten the downfall of the oppressive Zionist regime.

While the martyrdom of the resistance commander and his companions brings deep sorrow to Muslims globally, it will also reveal the brutal essence of the Zionist regime and its allies, fostering a strong determination to combat the criminal actions of Israel.

We, a collective of former parliamentary representatives, offer our heartfelt congratulations and condolences to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, the esteemed people of Lebanon, the fighters of the Resistance Axis, and all Muslims and advocates of freedom worldwide. 

We hope that the noble sacrifice of martyr Nasrallah and the esteemed martyrs of Gaza, Lebanon, and the Resistance Axis will further awaken Muslims and expedite the dismantling of the oppressive Zionist regime.”
