Mehbooba Mufti, the leader of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and former Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir, has announced the cancellation of her election campaign scheduled for September 29 in protest against the killing of Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah by Israeli airstrikes. This decision comes in solidarity with the “martyrs” of Lebanon and Gaza, particularly Nasrallah, who was confirmed dead following a targeted strike on Hezbollah's headquarters in Beirut on September 27.

In a statement on social media platform X, Mufti expressed her grief, stating, “Cancelling my campaign tomorrow in solidarity with the martyrs of Lebanon & Gaza especially Hassan Nasrullah. We stand with the people of Palestine & Lebanon in this hour of immense grief & exemplary resistance.” Her announcement reflects a broader sentiment among some groups in Jammu and Kashmir, where protests erupted against Nasrallah's killing, with demonstrators chanting slogans against Israel.

The airstrike that killed Nasrallah was part of a series of Israeli military operations aimed at Hezbollah leadership, marking a significant escalation in ongoing tensions between Israel and Hezbollah. Following the attack, which resulted in at least six fatalities and numerous injuries, Hezbollah confirmed Nasrallah's death and declared that he had "joined his fellow martyrs." The group has vowed to continue its struggle against Israel.

As the situation unfolds, fears grow that the conflict could escalate further, potentially involving Iran and other regional players. The Middle East remains on edge as thousands have fled affected areas in Lebanon amid ongoing Israeli bombardments.

After PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti cancels campaign in solidarity with the martyrs of Lebanon & Gaza, especially Hassan Nasarullah, Former Deputy CM of J&K and BJP leader Kavinder Gupta says, "Why does Hassan Nasarullah's death pain, Mehbooba Mufti? When Hindus in Bangladesh are attacked and killed they are tight-lipped...These are crocodile tears and people understand the intent behind this..."
