News - Middle East: Sheikh Ali Damoush, head of the High Committee for the Funeral Ceremonies of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, confirmed that the US-Saudi blockade hindered broader participation from Yemen’s leadership and people in the funeral processions of the martyred leaders, Sayyed Nasrallah and Safieddine.

“Today was truly a day of divine blessings and great victory. Through their majestic presence at the funeral, our people sent a clear message: they remain on the battlefield. Peace be upon your men, women, youth, girls, and children. Peace upon your tears, your sighs, your grief, and your raised fists in defiance of the enemy,” Sheikh Damoush stated.

Sheikh Damoush extended his gratitude to all those who participated in the funeral of the two revered figures, saying, “We extend our deepest gratitude.” He continued, “A special thanks to the government and people of Iraq, the leadership and people of the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the proud and noble people of Yemen and their fighters.”

He also expressed appreciation for local and international media, as well as influencers who helped convey the powerful image of the funeral.

“We deeply appreciate everyone who helped make this ceremony a success and all who offered their condolences during this great loss. Above all, we thank God for His blessings.”

Tributes continue to pour in for these legendary figures of the resistance front, revered for their indomitable struggle to liberate al-Quds from the clutches of the settler-colonial Zionist regime.

The ceremony, with the attendance of dignitaries from 70 countries, will conclude with a speech by Hezbollah Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem before the final march to the burial site.
