Hezbollah Chief Qassem Marks Nasrallah Anniversary, Says Palestine 'Remains Our Priority'

Hezbollah Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem commemorated the anniversary of the death of his predecessor, Hassan Nasrallah, with remarks stressing that "Palestine and the liberation of our land remains our priority," according to Mehr News Agency.

The commemoration comes as part of the group's continued public remembrance of Nasrallah, who led Hezbollah for more than three decades before his death, and who remains a central figure in the group's political and ideological messaging.

Qassem's remarks reaffirm Hezbollah's longstanding public positioning on the Palestinian issue, a stance the group has repeatedly emphasized as central to its broader regional role and rhetoric.

The statement was made in the context of a commemorative event marking Nasrallah's death, an occasion Hezbollah has continued to mark publicly as part of efforts to honor his legacy within the organization and among its supporters.

No further details on specific policy actions or plans related to the stated priority were included in the reported remarks.

The comments come amid a period of continued regional tension involving multiple parties across the Middle East, though Qassem's remarks as reported focused specifically on the commemoration and the reaffirmation of the group's stated position.
