Tehran, July 31 (HS). Ismail Haniyya, the head of the world-famous terrorist organization Hamas, was finally killed in an attack on his residence in Iran's capital Tehran. Haniyya's bodyguard was also killed in this attack. After Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Hamas has also confirmed the death of both.
Hamas has said that both of them died in Israel's airstrike on Wednesday. It is noteworthy that Haniyeh attended the swearing-in ceremony of Iran's new president on Tuesday. He also met Iran's supreme leader. Analysts on Iranian state television have blamed Israel for this.
It should be noted that in April this year, Israeli security forces killed Haniya's three sons. All three were killed during an airstrike in the Gaza Strip. Israel had claimed that Haniya's three sons Amir, Hazem and Mohammad were involved in terrorist activities. Last year, on the midnight of October 7, Hamas terrorists carried out air strikes on Israel. About 1,200 people were killed in this attack. Since then, Israel has waged a war against Hamas. The Israeli army is continuously carrying out military action against Hamas in Gaza.
Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh was born in 1962 in the Al-Shati refugee camp in the Gaza Strip. He was the Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority from 2006 to 2007. In 2017, he was made the Hamas chief in place of Khalid Meshaal. Earlier, Israel attacked Hezbollah bases in Beirut. The Israeli army said that the terrorist commander responsible for the rocket attack on the Golan Heights was targeted. Hezbollah military commander Fuad Shukr was killed in this attack.
