Early life
[change | change source]Hassan Nasrallah was born in Bourj Hammoud, east Beirut to a Lebanese Shia Muslim family. He was among ten children in his family. He went to Al Najah school, and then a public school in Sin el-Fil, Beirut. The civil war in 1975 caused his family to move to their old home in Bassouriyeh.[8] There, he finished his secondary education at the public school in Tyre. He then joined the Amal Movement, a militant group that represents the Shi'a Muslims in Lebanon. He used to organize the local religious youth into a study group at the village’s Islamic library. Soon he was made the representative of Amal movement in his village at just the age of 15.[1]

Legacy
[change | change source]The Economist noted that "Mr Nasrallah's death will reshape Lebanon, and the region, in ways that would have been unthinkable a year ago."[14] According to the newspaper, the person that takes his role will have a very difficult task: "It is not just that Israel has wiped out almost its entire military leadership (..). It is also that the group stands humiliated in front of a Lebanese public that had already come to resent Hezbollah [for the way in which they do politics]."[14]
