2024-07-31 Hamas Political Leader Ismail Haniyeh Killed in Iran in Apparent Israeli Strike Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas’s top ceasefire negotiator, has been assassinated in an airstrike in Tehran, with Hamas leaders saying that Israel is responsible and that the move will severely undermine talks for a ceasefire amid Israel’s genocide of Gaza.
Haniyeh, who was head of Hamas’s political bureau, was killed in the early hours of Wednesday in his residence in Iran’s capital, which he was visiting to attend the inauguration of Iran’s newly elected president. His bodyguard was also killed in the attack.
Israel has not taken responsibility for the killing, but at least one Israeli minister has publicly celebrated Haniyeh’s death. Hamas called the killing a “treacherous Zionist raid,” and Iranian leaders also said that Israel was behind the strike. https://truthout.org/articles/hamas-political-leader-ismail-haniyeh-killed-in-iran-in-apparent-israeli-strike/ 2023-12-10 Hamas leader escapes from Israel, likely hiding underground The Israeli media has reported the escape of Hamas leader, Yahya Sinwar, from the northern region of the Gaza Strip.
