Hezbollah on Saturday said it is mourning Hassan Nasrallah, its chief of 32 years, who was killed in an Israeli strike on Beirut the day before. Under Nasrallah’s leadership, Hezbollah grew from a “small guerrilla fighters' group to one of the largest militias in the world”, FRANCE 24’s Rawad Taha said. Nasrallah oversaw Lebanon's "first war" with Israel in 1996 and the withdrawal of Israeli troops from southern Lebanon in 2000 as well as the 2006 war in which Hezbollah claimed victory, Taha said.  #Nasrallah #Hezbollah #Lebanon 🔔 Subscribe to France 24 now: https://f24.my/YTen 🔴 LIVE - Watch FRANCE 24 English 24/7 here: https://f24.my/YTliveEN 🌍 Read the latest International News and Top Stories: https://www.france24.com/en/ Like us on Facebook: https://f24.my/FBen Follow us on X (Twitter): https://f24.my/Xen Browse the news in pictures on Instagram: https://f24.my/IGen Discover our TikTok videos: https://f24.my/TKen Get the latest top stories on Telegram: https://f24.my/TGen
