  • Does a video show Hassan Nasrallah, the secretary-general of the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, crying after an Israeli airstrike that occurred in Beirut on July 28, 2024? No, that's not true: Although the video does show Nasrallah crying, the video predates the Israeli airstrike. In the footage Nasrallah was making a speech about Ashura, an important commemorative day in Shia islam, and not about an attack in Beirut. The claim appeared in a post (archived here) published on X on July 30, 2024. The post included a video of Nasrallah crying and was captioned: Head of Hezbollah Nasrallah earlier this evening - oh boo hoo. This is what the post looked like on X at the time of the writing of this fact check: (Source: X screenshot taken on Wed Jul 31 15:06:13 2024 UTC) The post on X was referencing the Israeli airstrike that hit Beirut, Lebanon on July 30, 2024, in response to a rocket attack against Israel on July 27, 2024, that left at least 12 children dead. Israel blamed Hezbollah for the attack, but the group said that it was not responsible (archived here). On July 30, 2024, Israel claimed that its airstrike killed senior Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr (archived here). To test the claim on X about Hezbollah leader Nasrallah crying over the death, Lead Stories performed a reverse image search using Google (archived here) to find the origin of the posted video. We discovered an article (archived here) published by Ynetnews on September 13, 2018, that used an image of the same video of Nasrallah. (Source: Ynetnews screenshot taken on Wed Jul 31 at 18:03:00 2024 UTC) The article stated that Nasrallah became emotional during a speech earlier in the week while discussing Ashura, a day of mourning for Shiite Muslims that was celebrated around September 20 in 2018. Other Lead Stories fact checks of claims related to Hezbollah can be found here.
