TEHRAN (IQNA) – Sayed Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary General of Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement, is scheduled to deliver a speech on Thursday.

 

According to al-Manar, his speech will begin at 8:30 PM local time and will be broadcast live.

It will mark the injured war veteran’s day in the Arab country.

Nasrallah will talk about the latest developments in Lebanon and in the region, according to the report.

They will include the economic crisis in the Arab country.

Lebanon is experiencing its worst economic crisis in decades, compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Prices are skyrocketing and more than half of the population is now living below the poverty line.

Since the Lebanese government formally resigned after a massive explosion in Beirut port last August, domestic political divisions and pressure by some Western states, mainly France, have so far hindered the formation of a formal cabinet that could enter negotiations for economic assistance with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
