Thousands Chant ‘Death to Israel’ at Nasrallah’s Funeral Amid Israeli Jet Flyovers
by Emmitt Barry, Worthy News Correspondent
(Worthy News) – Thousands dressed in black converged at Beirut’s Camille Chamoun Sports City Stadium to mourn Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, killed in an Israeli airstrike five months ago. As Israeli jets flew low overhead just as the funeral began, the crowd chanted “Death to Israel, death to America, we respond to your call, Nasrallah.”
At the funeral, attendees displayed Hezbollah flags and Nasrallah’s photos, reaffirming their support for the terrorist group despite recent losses in conflicts with Israel.
Nasrallah, instrumental in turning Hezbollah into a major military threat with Iran’s support, was a prime target in Israel’s escalated campaign last year that notably debilitated the terrorist group.
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz emphasized that the overflight during Nasrallah’s funeral sent a “clear message” to Israel’s adversaries.
“Israeli Air Force aircraft currently flying over Beirut, over the funeral of Hassan Nasrallah, convey a clear message: Whoever threatens to destroy Israel and attack Israel — it will be their end,” he stated.
Katz further declared, “You will specialize in funerals, and we will specialize in victories.”
