The Internal Security Forces, together with the residents of the town of Yanouh, held funeral ceremonies for their martyr, Warrant Officer First Class Hassan Ali Jaber, and his son Ali, who were martyred on 09/02/2026 as a result of an Israeli airstrike on the said town. The funeral took place today, 10/02/2026, during a solemn procession attended, alongside the martyr’s family, by the Head of the Southern Information Branch, Colonel Abdel Nabi Zbib, representing the Director General of the Internal Security Forces, Major General Raed Abdullah, heading a delegation of officers. Also in attendance were representatives of military and security leaderships, religious and social figures, as well as a number of the martyr’s colleagues and companions.
Following the laying of the two martyrs’ bodies, official honors were rendered to the sound of the funeral march performed by a band from the Internal Security Forces’ music unit, preceded by the bearers of medals and wreaths.
A eulogy was then delivered by Colonel Abdel Nabi Zbib, in which he paid tribute to the Warrant Officer, stating:
“On behalf of the General Directorate of the Internal Security Forces — command, officers, and personnel — on behalf of the Head of the Information Branch, and on my own behalf, we extend our deepest condolences and sincere sympathy to the Jaber family, to the honorable people of the town of Yanouh, and to all loved ones and attendees, for the loss of the two martyrs, Warrant Officer First Class Hassan Jaber and his son Ali.
This is true death, and this is the greatness of martyrdom. You resisted and endured, bearing pain with dignity, a devoted father and a role model among your colleagues for honesty and discipline, until yesterday morning when you advanced toward martyrdom, dismounting from the steed of duty to ascend alongside your son, offering everything you had.
Pure blood has irrigated the land of the South and will remain a noble symbol of sacrifice in the face of the enemy, its crimes, and its treacherous war machine that murdered the innocence of children and the resolve of men. It was the will of the Almighty Creator that you depart and join the caravan of martyrs of the Internal Security Forces and the الوطن.”
He then recited a brief account of the martyr’s life.
Afterwards, the funeral procession proceeded toward the martyrs’ final resting place, led by the bearers of medals and wreaths on behalf of the Internal Security Forces institution.
