Tehran City Council Chairman Mahdi Chamran announced that a street in the Iranian capital will be named after Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, who was assassinated by the IDF two days ago describing the move as a "symbol of support for the axis of resistance,” according to Iran International.

Iran has reportedly also unveiled a mural in the capital in memory of Nasralla, accompanied by a verse from the Quran that "Behold, the help of Allah is near."

Jared Kushner, son-in-law of former US President Donald Trump praised Israel for the elimination of Hezbollah leader Nasrallah, calling the day of Nasrallah's death the "most important day" in the region since Israel signed normalization agreements with four Arab and Muslim states in 2020, as reported by Arutz Sheva.

Here's what he had to say:

"September 27th is the most important day in the Middle East since the Abraham Accords breakthrough ... I have spent countless hours studying Hezbollah and there is not an expert on earth who thought that what Israel has done to decapitate and degrade them was possible.

This is significant because Iran is now fully exposed. The reason why their nuclear facilities have not been destroyed, despite weak air defense systems, is because Hezbollah has been a loaded gun pointed at Israel. Iran spent the last forty years building this capability as its deterrent.

President Trump would often say, 'Iran has never won a war but never lost a negotiation.' The Islamic Republic’s regime is much tougher when risking Hamas, Hezbollah, Syrian and Houthi lives than when risking their own. Their foolish efforts to assassinate President Trump and hack his campaign reek of desperation and are hardening a large coalition against them."
