Lebanon's Hezbollah is preparing for a massive turnout for the funeral of its slain leader Hassan Nasrallah, an opportunity for a show of strength after a war with Israel. The funeral will be held at the Camille Chamoun sports stadium in Beirut and is expected to draw tens of thousands of people. Hezbollah has invited senior Lebanese officials and Iran has said it will participate 'at a high level.' The ceremony will also be for Hashem Safieddine, who was chosen to succeed Nasrallah before being killed in an Israeli strike.
