"Our message is that we will follow in the footsteps of the Imam, the leader, and continue the march, God willing. It was shocking and heartbreaking news. We are still in shock," another said.
Hezbollah Secretary-General Naim Qassem issued a statement on Sunday, paying tribute to Khamenei. He said the assassination of the Iranian Supreme Leader represents the "height of criminality" and "a stain on humanity."
He also pledged to confront aggression no matter the cost, stressing that the resistance will not retreat from the battlefield.
Khamenei was one of the longest-serving leaders in the Middle East, and his death was expected to cast a long shadow over Iran and the broader region.
