What are the circumstances surrounding Hassan Nasrallah's death and what impact is it having on Lebanon?
Hassan Nasrallah, the Hezbollah leader, was killed in an Israeli airstrike on September 27, 2024, as part of Israel's escalated campaign against Hezbollah. His death represents a significant moment in the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Lebanon-based militant group. The impact of Nasrallah's death continues to affect daily life in Lebanon, with Beirut Airport scheduled to close for four hours on Sunday to accommodate his funeral proceedings. This closure occurs against the backdrop of Israeli troop withdrawals from Lebanon under a ceasefire agreement, while the Lebanese government continues to push for a complete Israeli pullout from what they consider occupied territory.
