Iran’s Top Officials Attend Memorial Service on 40th Day after Nasrallah Martyrdom
The Martyr Motahhari School and Mosque hosted the memorial service for Nasrallah and Iranian commander General Abbas Nilforoushan, who were martyred in an Israeli airstrike in September.
It was attended by senior Iranian officials, including President Masoud Pezeshkian, First Vice-President Mohammad Reza Aref, head of the Leader’s office Hojat-ol-Islam Mohammad Mohammadi Golpayegani, and Mohammad Mokhber, an adviser to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution.
Hojat-ol-Islam Sayed Hashem al-Haydari, an Iraqi Islamic resistance figure, addressed the ceremony, highlighting different aspects of Nasrallah’s character such as piety, bravery and Ikhlas (purity of intention).

He added that Nasrallah was devoted to the Wali Faqih and served as a soldier in the resistance front.
Sayed Hassan Nasrallah was martyred in a massive airstrike that Israel launched on southern Beirut on September 27 using American-supplied bunker-buster bombs.
General Niloforoushan, who served as a military adviser in Lebanon, was martyred in the same attack.
Israel’s attacks come against the backdrop of escalated tensions between the Lebanese resistance movement and the occupying entity, which included the targeted killing of top Hezbollah commanders and the detonation of telecommunication devices belonging to the Muslim resistance group.
Israel has been targeting Lebanon since October 7 last year, when it launched a genocidal war on the besieged Gaza Strip.
Hezbollah has been responding to the aggression with numerous retaliatory operations, including one with a hypersonic ballistic missile, targeting the occupied Palestinian territories.
The Lebanese resistance movement has vowed to keep up its operations against Israel as long as the Israeli regime continues its Gaza war.
