Erdogan condemns assassination of Hamas leader in Tehran

31 July 2024 13:40

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan strongly condemned the assassination of Hamas Political Bureau Chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran on July 31.

"I strongly condemn and curse the treacherous assassination carried out in Tehran against Hamas Political Bureau Chief Ismail Haniyeh," Caliber.Az reports via foreign media.

He described the killing as "a despicable attempt to undermine the Palestinian Cause, the glorious resistance of Gaza, and the rightful struggle of our Palestinian brothers, aiming to demoralize, intimidate, and suppress them."

Erdogan emphasized that this assassination mirrors previous attacks on prominent Palestinian figures such as Sheikh Ahmed Yassin and Abdul Aziz al-Rantisi, asserting that "Zionist barbarism will once again fail to achieve its goals."

Calling for a united stance from the Islamic world, Erdogan urged an end to the oppression in Gaza and reaffirmed Türkiye’s commitment to supporting the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.

Erdogan concluded by offering prayers for Haniyeh and extending condolences to his family and the Palestinian people.

Hamas announced early Wednesday that Haniyeh was killed in an Israeli airstrike on his residence in Tehran. Iranian state television confirmed Haniyeh’s death, noting that an investigation into the assassination is ongoing, with results to be announced soon. Israel has made no immediate comment on the assassination.
