Biden calls Hezbollah leader’s death “measure of justice”
President Biden calls Israel’s killing of Hezbollah’s leader a “measure of justice.” In a written statement, the president said that Hezbollah under Hasan Nasrallah’s watch has been responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Americans over the past four decades.
