Nasrallah to discuss Syria attack in speech Friday
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah will deliver a speech on Friday afternoon, where he will address the attack on a convoy in Quneitra, in the Syrian Golan Heights, last week.
Six Hezbollah members died in the attack, including Jihad Mughniyeh, the son of Iamd Mughniyeh who was one of Hezbollah’s top strategists.
A poster for the speech posted on the website of Hezbollah mouthpiece al-Manar shows the six slain Hezbollah operatives, as well as Iranian general Mohammed Allahdadi, also killed in the strike.
