Tens of thousands of people gathered at a stadium in Lebanon's capital Beirut to mourn Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, in a public funeral nearly five months after he was killed by an Israeli air strike.

Tens of thousands of black-clad mourners vowed support for Hezbollah at the Beirut funeral of slain leader Hassan Nasrallah on Sunday, after the group was dealt major blows in its last round of hostilities with Israel.

Israeli warplanes carried out airstrikes on several towns in eastern and southern Lebanon on Sunday amid a mass funeral of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and despite an ongoing ceasefire. The Israeli attacks targeted the towns of Zrariyeh, Zibqin, Al-Qlaiaah, Jannata, Deir Qanoun Al Naher, and Maaroub in southern Lebanon, sources said.
