"... Hassan Nasrallah has been re-elected as the Shiite Muslim group's leader for a sixth term. A Hezbollah statement did not say when the group's top officials voted to re-elect Nasrallah, who has held the post since an Israeli helicopter gunship killed his predecessor, Sheik Abbas Musawi. No one ran against Nasrallah.

Naim Kassim also has been re-elected as Nasrallah's deputy, according to the statement.... Hezbollah has over the years grown to run a network of interests - clinics, schools, a TV station and a weekly newspaper. It caters mainly to Lebanon's 1.2 million Shiite Muslims, the country's largest single sect."
