Hamas Hamas Group leader was eliminated in Tehran by a managed rocket
According to Hamas, Haniya died as a result of an alleged Israeli blow to his residence in the Iran's capital. Together with the group of the group, his guard was killed. Previously, a managed rocket was used during the attack. The Arab TV channel Al Maydeen states that a rocket strike was applied from the house where Hani was located, but has not yet been named the official cause of his death.
Tasnim reports that Hanya came to Iran for the inauguration ceremony of the new President Iran Masuda Pesshkian and was killed by a "projectile from the air" about second o'clock in the morning. The high -ranking representative Hamas Musa Abu Marzuk, who repeatedly came to Moscow, called the liquidation of Hana "a cowardly act that will not be response.
" The deputy head of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Mikhail Bogdanov, called the death of Khania "absolutely unacceptable political murder", which, according to Russian diplomats, will lead to further escalation of tensions in the region. Meanwhile, the Israeli side has not yet commented on the death of the Palestinian leader.
The only Israeli official who spoke about the murder of Hania was the Minister of Jerusalem and the heritage of Israel Amiikhai Eliyakh, who called him "the right way to clear the world from this dirt. " Moreover, according to The Times of Israel, Eliakh's statement was made despite the demand of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyhah from ministers not to discuss the event in public.
The 62-year-old Ismail Hanium is considered responsible for the attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, which killed more than 1,200 Israelis, and more than 250 people were hostage. Some of them still remain in Hamas in the Gaza sector. In April 2024, three sons of Haniya were killed in the Israeli soldiers. The blow was applied along the Ash-Shati refugee camp.
Haniya confirmed the death of his sons and several grandchildren, adding that 60 members of his family had been killed since the beginning of the war. In Israel, the Palestinian leader is considered one of the key figures in the negotiations on the release of hostages and ceasefire in the Gaza sector. Hanny was under US sanctions. In 2018, the US State Department recognized him as a terrorist. However, he has a friendly relationship with Moscow.
