STORYLINE:
Yemen’s Houthi rebels held a memorial service in Sanaa on Wednesday for Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike on Beirut last week.
Leaders and military officials with the rebels, who are known as the Ansar Allah movement, attended the service at al-Shaab Mosque in Sanaa.
Attendees shouted slogans and carried pictures of Nasrallah.
Lebanon’s Hezbollah group confirmed on Saturday that Nasrallah, its leader and one of its founding members was killed in an Israeli airstrike in a southern suburb of Beirut.
The killing of the powerful militant group’s longtime leader sent shockwaves throughout Lebanon and the Middle East, where he has been a dominant political and military figure for more than three decades.
Nasrallah has been on Israel’s kill list for decades.
His assassination is by far the biggest and most consequential of Israel’s targeted killings in years, and significantly escalates the war in the Middle East.
Hezbollah is backed by Iran, Israel’s chief regional rival.
The Lebanese Health Ministry said six people were killed and 91 injured in the strikes Friday that leveled six apartment buildings, but the death toll was expected to be much higher.
