The spokesperson for the Iranian Islamic Revolution Guard Corps IRGC emphasized that there is “no doubt” that “Israel” will be the “loser from the cowardly” assassination of martyr Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas’ former politburo chief.
“The Zionists do not know when, at what hour, on what day, or in what week, and how they will receive the response” for his assassination, said Brigadier General Ali Mohammad Naeini.
During a speech in the port city of Bandar Abbas, southern Iran, the general pointed out that “all the occupied territories have become inflamed,” also referring to the Resistance in the West Bank, adding that “the Zionists do not know what awaits them,” and that they are living in constant fear.
The commander of the IRGC, Major General Hossein Salami, affirmed on Monday that the Israeli regime “will receive a decisive response” and “will realize [then] it miscalculated”.
“They will see when, where, and how they will receive the response,” IRGC’s top chief said.
Yahya al-Sinwar voted in
Hamas announced late Tuesday that the Palestinian resistance leader Yahya al-Sinwar will serve as its new political leader, succeeding martyr Haniyeh.
In a statement, the Hamas Movement said, “After in-depth and extensive consultations and deliberations in our leadership institutions, brother leader Yahya Sinwar was chosen as head of the political bureau.”
“We express our confidence in our brother Abu Ibrahim as the leader of the movement at a sensitive stage and complex local, regional, and international circumstances,” the statement added.
As “Israel” and the United States went on high alert in the region to prepare for the response of Iran and the Resistance Axis, they also tried reaching out to Tehran via third parties, to persuade it not to retaliate.
Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi visited the Islamic Republic on Sunday, for the first time in almost a decade, to talk Iran out of responding. But Tehran shut down his efforts.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian told Safadi during a meeting that assassinating Haniyeh was a “big mistake of the Zionists” that goes “against all international laws.”
