Hawzah News Agency- In a statement released on Sunday on the second anniversary of the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, the IRGC said the former Hamas leader's martyrdom has reinforced the determination of the Palestinian people and Hamas fighters to continue his path while further deepening the discourse of resistance.
The statement described Haniyeh's assassination in Tehran on July 31, 2024, while he was attending the inauguration ceremony of the Iranian president as an official guest, as a major crime and a flagrant violation of international law as well as Iran's national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
The IRGC said that two years after the assassination, the continuation of the Israeli regime's genocide in the Gaza Strip, the expansion of the war to southern Lebanon, and the subsequent conflicts involving Iran have further exposed the Zionist regime's "terrorist and criminal nature."
It also lashed out at the US and several Western countries for supporting the Zionist regime militarily and politically, saying such backing makes them complicit in war crimes and genocide against the Palestinian people.
The statement said the blood of Iranian, Palestinian and Lebanese martyrs, including martyred Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, Ismail Haniyeh, former Hezbollah secretary general Seyed Hassan Nasrallah, and Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani, symbolizes the unity of Muslims in confronting arrogance and Zionism.
According to the IRGC, international support for Palestine has grown significantly, as reflected in widespread demonstrations around the world condemning the Israeli regime's actions in Gaza.
The statement concluded by saying that retaliation for the assassinations of Haniyeh and the martyred Leader of the Islamic Revolution is inevitable and would be "severe and crushing." It also rejected proposals to disarm Hamas, saying such efforts are doomed to fail, and maintained that Haniyeh's path would continue until the realiztimesation of Palestinian aspirations.
