Iran’s foreign ministry has said that the path of Hezbollah’s chief Hassan Nasrallah will continue despite his killing in an Israeli air strike after a year of cross-border clashes between the two sides, AFP reports.

“The glorious path of the leader of the resistance, Hassan Nasrallah, will continue and his sacred goal will be realised in the liberation of Quds (Jerusalem), God willing,” said foreign ministry spokesman Nasser Kanani in a post on X mourning his death.
