Hezbollah showcases strength through its population at Nasrallah's funeral: Analysis

Tens of thousands of people have gathered in the Lebanese capital, Beirut, for the funeral of the late Hezbollah leaders Hassan Nasrallah and Hashem Safieddine, who were killed in Israeli airstrikes last year. The event signalled the party’s continued influence despite Israeli attacks and regional pressures. Al Jazeera's Ali Hashem noted the strong logistical organisation, demonstrating Hezbollah’s operational strength. The ceremony also sent a political message, emphasising Hezbollah’s broad support base. Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem’s speech hinted at diplomatic and resistance strategies without a clear direction. Iran’s presence, including high-ranking officials, reinforced its backing of Hezbollah. The event highlighted Hezbollah’s role in Lebanon’s power dynamics. Observers suggest the party remains a key regional player.
