Hezbollah chief condoles death of 3 Iranians in Lebanon

In his message which was released on Friday, Nasrallah sympathized with bereaved families of the victims of the sad occasion.

On Sunday March 25, six people of a 15-member family group that had come to Beirut for Nowruz holidays fell into the sea due to a harsh wave crashing on the rocky beach of Raouché.

Local fishermen and rescue teams rushed to the scene of the incident and could save 3 people, but two of the victims, who were two girls, 9 and 15, died, and one man went missing. His body was recovered after two days in the waters.

Iran's Embassy in Beirut in coordination with Lebanese organizations formed a special committee to follow up the issue.

Meanwhile, Lebanon's President Michel Aoun extended his condolences to his Iranian counterpart Hassan Rouhani over the deadly accident.
