Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah for the past 32 years, has reportedly been killed in an Israeli airstrike. His death marks a major setback for the militant group, which he led to prominence in the Middle East. Analysts believe Nasrallah’s death will weaken Hezbollah significantly and complicate the process of selecting his successor. Born in 1960 to a struggling Shiite family, Nasrallah pursued theological studies and initially became involved with the Amal movement, a Shiite political and paramilitary organization. He later helped found Hezbollah, which formally announced its creation in 1985 with an «open letter» identifying the US and Soviet Union as Islam’s main enemies. The letter also called for the «obliteration» of Israel, accusing it of occupying Muslim lands. Nasrallah was appointed Hezbollah’s secretary-general in 1992 and over the following decades built it into one of the most powerful militant organizations in the Middle East. Under his leadership, Hezbollah grew both militarily and politically, and became known for its staunch opposition to Israel and Western influence.

In a conversation at a tech event with YourStory founder Shradha Sharma, Kamath blamed India’s socialist mindset and wide economic disparities that have triggered a culture that discouraged entrepreneurship and also fostered bitterness towards the moneyed classes. “In the US, if someone makes a lot of money they are very successful and buy new cars, then it comes on the cover page.
