Syrian President Bashar al-Assad sent a telegram to Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah, expressing his condolences after the death of Nasrallah's mother, reported the official National News Agency (NNA).

The Shiite party and al-Manar television channel first announced the death of Nahdiya Safieddine on Saturday evening.

A second statement, released later in the evening in the name of the "Hezbollah Command," clarified that she passed away "after a long battle with illness," honoring her memory as a "faithful mother who gave birth to a loyal and generous family."

The party extended its condolences to the Nasrallah family, especially to the deceased's husband, Abdelkarim Nasrallah.

The funeral took place on Sunday in Ghobeiry, a suburb in the southern part of Beirut.
