Kargil: Imam Khomeini Memorial Trust holds protest over killing of Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah

Kargil (Ladakh) [India], September 29 (ANI): A protest march was organised by the Imam Khomeini Memorial Trust (IKMT) in Kargil on Sunday, Ladakh against the killing of top Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Israeli airstrikes.

The members of IKMT were seen holding banners in solidarity with Nasrallah. They were also raising slogans in his support.
Several protestors criticised Israel for its action in Gaza and Lebanon amid the escalating conflict in the Middle East.

Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah was killed in an Israeli airstrike in Beirut, Lebanon.
Israel Defence Forces (IDF) confirmed the killing stating, "Hassan Nasrallah will no longer be able to terrorise the world."
The ongoing conflict in Gaza has spiralled in the region with repeated strikes between Israel and Iran-backed Hezbollah. The escalating situation in the Middle East has raised concerns, following which many players have called for a ceasefire.
Meanwhile, Nasrallah's killing has created another political row, with People's Democratic Party chief Mehbooba Mufti, cancelling her election campaign on Sunday for the third phase of the assembly polls in Jammu and Kashmir in "solidarity with the martyrs of Lebanon and Gaza, especially Hassan Nasarullah."
"Cancelling my campaign tomorrow in solidarity with the martyrs of Lebanon and Gaza, especially Hassan Nasarullah. We stand with the people of Palestine and Lebanon in this hour of immense grief and exemplary resistance," Mehbooba Mufti said in a post on X on Saturday.
Bharatiya Janata Party has slammed Mufti for showing solidarity with Nasrallah and accused her of supporting terrorists.
Former Union Minister Anurag Thakur said that parties like the National Conference, People's Democratic Party and Congress support terrorism and not democracy. He further said that these parties are aware of the situation in Gaza but are unable to see what's happening with the Hindus in Dhaka.
BJP leader Kavinder Gupta termed Mufti's empathy as "crocodile tears" and questioned the PDP chief on her silence on the "attacks and killings" of Hindus in Bangladesh and said that one should speak on the "lines of humanity."
BJP spokesperson Altaf Thakur also attacked Mufti over the issue and said she was playing her "religious card" and an "election stunt" for doing appeasement.
Hezbollah has officially acknowledged the death of its leader, Hassan Nasrallah, following Israeli strikes in Beirut.
Hezbollah said on Saturday that its leader, Nasrallah, "has joined his fellow martyrs." The group also vowed that it would "continue the holy war against the enemy and in support of Palestine," Al Jazeera reported.
Following the death of Nasrallah, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a warning to Iran's Ayatollah regime and asserted that those who target Israel will face 'consequences' and that "no location" in Iran or the Middle East is "beyond Israel's reach." (ANI)
