Hundreds of Iraqis and Iranians, including senior leaders, are heading to Beirut for the funeral of former Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike. The mass funeral is aimed at showing political strength after Hezbollah was weakened in last year's war. The funeral will also honor Hashem Safieddine, who briefly led Hezbollah before being killed by Israel. The ceremony will be held at Lebanon's biggest sports arena, with Nasrallah being buried at a dedicated site nearby.
