Hundreds of mourners gathered to honor Hussein Khalil and Mehdi Khalil, who died on June 21 during Israeli strikes on Iran. Hundreds of mourners gathered to pay their respects, chanting slogans against Israel and the United States, as the two men were laid to rest in Beirut’s Dahiyeh district. Hussein Khalil reportedly having served as a security aide to Hezbollah’s former Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, who was killed in an Israeli strike on the same district on September 27, 2024. Israel launched a wide-scale assault on Lebanon on October 8, 2023, that escalated into a full-scale war by September 23, 2024. The conflict has killed more than 4,000 people, wounded over 17,000, and displaced nearly 1.4 million, according to official data. Israeli forces have conducted near-daily attacks in southern Lebanon, claiming to target Hezbollah’s activities despite a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon that was reached in November. The truce ended months of cross-border warfare between Israel and the Lebanese resistance group. Lebanese authorities have reported nearly 3,000 Israeli violations of the truce, including the deaths of at least 225 people and injuries to more than 500, since the agreement was signed. Under the ceasefire deal, Israel was supposed to fully withdraw from southern Lebanon by January 26, but the deadline was extended to February 18 after Tel Aviv refused to comply. Israel still maintains a military presence at five border outposts. Writing by Aleyna Cil
