Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah met Thursday at his office with Ali Akbar Velayati, the international affairs adviser to Iran's supreme leader Ali Khamenei, the party said.

The meeting was held in the presence of Iranian Ambassador to Lebanon Mohammed Fathali, Hizbullah added in a terse statement.

The two men discussed “the latest political developments in Lebanon and the region,” the Hizbullah statement said.

Both Iran and Hizbullah have provided instrumental military support for embattled Syrian President Bashar Assad's regime in its confrontation with rebels and jihadists seeking to oust it.

Nasrallah is scheduled to make a televised speech on Friday afternoon, reported various media outlets on Thursday.

Friday's speech will be part of a ceremony for the Hizbullah-affiliated Islamic Resistance Support Organization

Nasrallah is set to discuss the latest local and regional developments, most notably those linked to the upcoming municipal elections.

The speech is scheduled for 5:00 pm.

The Hizbullah leader is also set to make another appearance next week to commemorate Hizbullah's wounded fighters.

The four-stage municipal elections will start in Beirut and Bekaa-al-Hermel districts on May 8, while the elections in Mount Lebanon will be held on May 15.

Elections in the South and Nabatieh are set for May 22 and on May 29 the polls will be held in the North and Akkar.

The zionist state only kills M14 leaders and lets your iranian resistance roam freely. Have you ever let your small brain tackle that issue?

The day the Lebanese wake up and stop selling their souls and very identities to the highest bidders, is the day there will be independence. For now? They let these wonderful people in for the sake of their wallets, which is more important to them anyways than their identity as a people. Nice work guys, looking forward to seeing the mess your engraved selfishness created.
