PSP calls for 'national moment' during Nasrallah's funeral

The Progressive Socialist Party on Thursday said it salutes “the souls of the martyrs who fell throughout the long history of the confrontation against the Israeli enemy,” calling on all Lebanese to demonstrate a “national moment” on Sunday, during the funeral of slain Hezbollah leaders Hassan Nasrallah and Hashem Safieddine.

“Their martyrdom represents the culmination of their course in resistance, away from all differences,” the PSP said in a statement.

Lauding “the spirit of national solidarity that appeared during the phases of the Israeli aggression against Lebanon,” the party said “this new phase requires everyone’s solidarity and cooperation based on the principles of partnership and understanding.”

The PSP also called for Israel’s full withdrawal from south Lebanon, urging the international sponsors to exert the needed pressure on Israel.
