Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has intensified his criticism of the United States, directly accusing President Donald Trump of encouraging the wave of protests that has shaken the country. The demonstrations, which began as economic grievances, quickly expanded into broader political unrest and were met with a forceful response from Iranian security forces.

Hassan Nasrallah: The Enigmatic Leader of Hezbollah

 

Hassan Nasrallah, born in Beirut in 1960, is the Secretary-General of Hezbollah, a prominent Shia Islamist militant group and political party based in Lebanon. Nasrallah joined Hezbollah in 1982, the year it was founded, and quickly rose through its ranks. He became the group’s leader in 1992 after the assassination of his predecessor, Sayyad Abbas Musawi.

Nasrallah is known for his charismatic leadership and strategic acumen, which have significantly shaped Hezbollah’s role in the Middle East. Under his leadership, Hezbollah has engaged in multiple conflicts with Israel and has been a key player in the Syrian Civil War. Despite being viewed as an extremist by Israel and the West, Nasrallah remains a highly influential figure in Lebanese politics and among Shia communities worldwide.

Nasrallah’s leadership style is marked by his ability to inspire loyalty and his adept use of media to communicate with his followers. He has rarely been seen in public in recent years due to fears of assassination, relying instead on televised speeches to maintain his presence.

Recently, reports have emerged claiming that Nasrallah was killed in an Israeli airstrike, although Hezbollah has yet to confirm these claims. If true, his death would mark a significant turning point for Hezbollah and the broader geopolitical landscape of the Middle East.
