People in cities and towns across Iran's Tehran Province are set to hold evening rallies on Sunday to mark the second anniversary of the death of Hezbollah Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, according to an Iranian official cited by IRNA.

The rallies, reported to take place in Varamin and other locations across the province, are being organized as part of commemorations marking what Iranian state media describes as Nasrallah's martyrdom.

Commemorations Across the Province

Nasrallah, who led the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah for decades, has been commemorated in Iran on the anniversary of his death in events that typically draw participation from local officials and residents.

The Iranian official's statement did not specify the total number of rallies planned or the expected scale of participation across Tehran Province.

Such commemorations are consistent with Iran's broader public expressions of solidarity with Hezbollah, an ally that has received Iranian political and material support for years.

Further details on the specific locations and programs of Sunday's rallies were not immediately available beyond the official's confirmation that events would take place across the province.

The anniversary commemorations are expected to be one of several similar events held in Iran and elsewhere in the region marking the occasion.
