A number of Iranian artists have taken to social media to express their condolences and sympathy with the people of Lebanon following the martyrdom of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the secretary-general of Hezbollah.
Meta, the owner of Instagram and Facebook, has been criticized for this move, with many accusing the company of censoring content related to the resistance movement. This is not the first time Meta has been accused of censoring content related to the martyrdom of resistance leaders, including Brigadier General Qassem Soleimani.

Jamal Shourjeh, a veteran screenwriter and director, shared a brief anecdote about his encounter with Sayyed Nasrallah during the production of the TV series Prophet Joseph.
Shourjeh wrote, “Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return). The martyrdom of the leader of the resistance is a testament to the continuation of the Islamic path until the emergence of the Imam Mahdi. I met Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah during the production of Prophet Joseph, and he welcomed me and the late Farajollah Salahshoor with open arms. I never thought I would see the day of his martyrdom... Alas, the path of Islam will continue until the emergence of the Imam Mahdi, God willing.”
Davood Mirbagheri, another prominent filmmaker, wrote a heartfelt condolence message, stating his spirit will continue to inspire the resistance movement.
Mirbagheri emphasized that the martyrdom of resistance leaders only strengthens their cause and brings them closer to victory.
He wrote, “Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, with the phoenix of martyrdom, flew to the realm of eternal love and will rest in the proximity of his pure ancestors. The news of his martyrdom was sudden and painful. I ask God to grant him and his martyred companions the highest ranks.”
Houshang Tavakoli, a veteran actor, reacted to the news by highlighting the significance of the resistance movement in the region and the role of Sayyed Nasrallah as a leader.
Tavakoli stated that the region has been embroiled in war for years and that the resistance movement, led by Sayyed Nasrallah, has been a beacon of hope.
He emphasized that the martyrdom of resistance leaders like Sayyed Nasrallah only serves to galvanize the movement and bring about its ultimate victory. Tavakoli said, “The war between the world of Islam and the Zionist regime is ongoing, and the resistance movement, led by Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, has been a shining example of resistance. Every martyrdom of a resistance leader brings us closer to victory.”
Ali Salehi, an actor, expressed his condolences and solidarity with the people of Lebanon through a social media post, writing “Curse on war and warmongers, curse on Israel” and sharing a photo of the devastation in Lebanon.
Hassan Rouholamin, an artist, published a digital artwork titled “Amir” (Commander) in tribute to Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and the martyrs of Hezbollah.
