Who is Hashem Safieddine? The likely successor to Hassan Nasrallah and Hezbollah's new face

The killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Israeli airstrikes has prompted speculation about his successor, Hashem Safieddine, who oversees the group’s political affairs. A cousin of Nasrallah and a designated terrorist by the U.S., Safieddine's militant rhetoric reflects Hezbollah's ongoing alignment with the Palestinian cause. As the group faces pressure following recent escalations, the selection of its next leader will significantly impact its future direction amidst increasing regional tensions.
