The chief commander of the Iranian Army has praised the appointment of Yahya Sinwar as the new political leader of Hamas, warning that the Israeli regime will soon be met with a strong response over the assassination of the Palestinian resistance movement’s chief Ismail Haniyeh.

The appointment of Yahya Sinwar as the new political leader of Hamas after the Israeli assassination of Ismail Haniyeh has drawn in applause from resistance groups.

Yahya Sinwar, the head of the Hamas resistance movement in Gaza, was named the political bureau leader on Monday, days after Ismail Haniyeh was assassinated in Tehran.

Iran's interim FM says Tehran won’t let the terrorist Israeli regime treat regional stability and security as playthings.

Hezbollah says the election of Yahya Sinwar as the new political leader of Hamas shows Israel's goals in assassinating the resistance group’s leaders have failed.

Hamas has replaced Commander Yahya Sinwar for martyred Ismail Haniyeh as political leader of the resistance movement.

“Nine million citizens are sitting in fear ... waiting to see what will happen,” Avichai Stern, the mayor of Kiryat Shmona, said.

After Israel assassinated Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, mainstream media tried to spin the narrative, disregarding that it amounted to terrorism and a breach of international law.

The relationship between Ismail Haniyeh and the Islamic Republic of Iran spanned decades and reached its climax with his martyrdom in the Iranian capital.

Iran’s Judiciary says the US is liable for prosecution as it has played an “undeniable role” in supporting Israel.
