Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah was killed in his bunker in an Israeli air strike. The strike was approved by Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu while he was attending a United Nations meeting in New York. The dead body of the dreaded terrorist was recovered from his bunker in Beirut which was destroyed in the Israeli air strikes.
As reported earlier, Nasrallah and other leaders of Hezbollah were conducting a meeting in an Underground bunker when Israel hit them, resulting in the death of Nasrallah along with other Hezbollah leaders. Following this, a protest march was organised in Jammu and Kashmir. Hundreds of protesters took to the streets in Kashmir holding portraits of Nasrallah and raising slogans against Israel. Not just men, but a large number of women also participated in the protests, chanting slogans in support of Hezbollah.
