Iranian Outlet Publishes New Footage of Hezbollah Leader Nasrallah's Death

Iran's semi-official Mehr News agency has published what it describes as previously unseen footage showing the moment Hassan Nasrallah, the former secretary-general of Lebanon's Hezbollah, was killed.

According to Mehr News, the footage depicts the strike that killed Nasrallah in Beirut's southern suburbs, an attack Israel carried out and later confirmed had killed the longtime Hezbollah leader. The report did not specify the exact source of the newly released footage or when it was recorded.

Nasrallah, who led Hezbollah for more than three decades, was killed in an Israeli airstrike in September 2024 amid escalating hostilities between Israel and the Lebanese armed group. His death marked one of the most significant blows to Hezbollah's leadership in the group's history.

Mehr News's report did not include additional details on how the footage was obtained or verified, and there was no immediate comment from Hezbollah or Israeli officials on the newly circulated material.

Nasrallah remains a deeply polarizing figure, regarded by supporters as a resistance leader and by opponents, including Israel and Western governments that designate Hezbollah a terrorist organization, as a militant commander responsible for attacks against Israeli targets.
