Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem says the terror group will keep following the path of slain chief Hassan Nasrallah during a televised speech broadcast at his massive funeral on the outskirts of Beirut.
“We will uphold trust and walk on this path, we will uphold your will,” Qassem says referring to Nasrallah, adding: “You are still with us, your… path and struggle live within us” and “I am loyal to the legacy Nasrallah.”
