A condolence meeting for slain Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah took place at New Delhi’s India Islamic Cultural Centre. Attendees chanted slogans such as "America Murdabad" during the event attended by Iranian and Palestinian envoys. Iranian Ambassador Dr. Iraj Elahi stated that Nasrallah's death is a significant loss for humanity, insisting Hezbollah is a political party, not a terrorist group. The meeting occurred amidst escalating tensions between Hezbollah and Israel, following Nasrallah's killing in an Israeli airstrike, which Israeli PM Netanyahu described as pivotal for shifting regional power dynamics.
