In a speech during the revival of al-Qadr Night, his eminence said that before 2006 war Hezbollah used to celebrate al-Quds Day, called for by Imam Khomeini, with bulky military parades, and a large turnout used to attend.

“The security measures taken against the Zionist entity primarily imposes changing the form of the celebration because the Israelis are lurking our leaders, staff, existence and being as they have killed Haj Imad Mughniyeh and others,” Sayyed Nasrallah added.

“Due to the security considerations and based on the sense of religious responsibility, we cannot gather thousands of soldiers  and leaders in one spot because the Israeli enemy aims at avenging for his defeat by Hezbollah”.

Sayyed Nasrallah considered that the heavy participation in the “special” celebration of International al-Quds Day contributes to  preserve the meanings that Imam Khomeini aimed at.

“The recent developments assert the importance of a significant presence and participation in this celebration to express our stance towards this cause”, Sayyed Nasrallah concluded.
