01:57Thousands marched in Milan on Saturday following the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, accusing Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's administration of complicity in Israel's military operations in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon.
The crowd reportedly held a minute of silence in Nasrallah's memory, rallying around the slogan: 'We have lost so many people, but not resistance."
Footage shows the protesters gathering in the streets while raising anti-Israel signs and banners. Lebanese songs calling for 'resistance' are also heard playing in the background as crowds make victory signs.
On Saturday, Hezbollah confirmed reports that its Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah had died following an Israeli airstrike on the militant group's central headquarters in Beirut's southern suburbs.
In a statement, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Nasrallah's death 'settled the account' with a 'mass murderer', describing the Hezbollah leader as a terrorist and the 'central engine of Iran's axis of evil'.
Tensions between the sides escalated in mid-September after a series of explosions of wireless communications devices used by Hezbollah left dozens dead and thousands injured. Hezbollah responded by launching hundreds of rockets into northern Israel.
Hezbollah, Lebanese, and Palestinian factions have been exchanging cross-border shelling with the Israeli forces since the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.
