Zeinab Soleimani, the 17-year-old daughter of Iranian Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani, who was assassinated in January by U.S. forces, just married Riza Safi al-Din, the son of a senior Hezbollah leader. The couple was wed over the weekend.

Soleimani was the head of the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Hashim Safi al-Din, Riza’s father, is Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah’s cousin and the terror organization’s second-in-command.

He is considered to be Nasrallah’s future successor, according to Israel’s Channel 12.

At her father’s funeral in January, Zeinab Soleimani threatened the United States, saying, “The families of American soldiers in the Middle East will be waiting for their children to die every day.”

She also promised that her father’s death would bring a “Black Day” to the United States and Israel.

“Crazy Trump, don’t think it’s all over when my dad became a martyr,” she said, referring to U.S. President Donald Trump.

She also called the president a “puppet [in] the hands of the Zionists,” as the massive crowd chanted “Death to America,” according to Channel 12.

During a meeting in January, Nasrallah told her, “Allah gave me the grand honor to be a part of jihad, and granted your father to end his life as a shahid [martyr]. It’s the most beautiful thing possible.”

“The expansion of our emergency services will help us better care for patients with the most serious injuries, ensuring they receive the specialized treatment they need, when it matters most,” the hospital said.
“My intent was to honor our Jewish neighbors and friends,” Nathalie Kanani stated. “We are all human, and even with the best intentions, honest mistakes can happen.”
The man was recognized by police officers while attending a court hearing of the three other suspects connected to the case.
The U.S. president warned that the U.S. military will begin targeting Iranian power plants and bridges on Tuesday if the Strait of Hormuz is not opened.
The cell posed an immediate threat to Israeli forces in northern Gaza, according to the military.
The event, which was attended by 70,000, comes just over two months after the rapper, also known as Kanye West, publishing an apology letter for antisemitic remarks.
