Watch: What Hamas Chief Ismail Haniyeh Did Hours Before His Assassination
Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh visited a theme park exhibition featuring ‘Axis of Resistance’ landmarks just hours before his assassination in Iran. He was seen alongside Palestinian Islamic Jihad leader Ziad al-Nakhaleh.
The ‘Axis of Resistance’ is an Iran-led coalition of groups, including Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis and allied forces in Syria and Iraq. This coalition aims to counter Western influence, particularly from the US and Israel, in the region. The alliance seeks to counteract what it dubs as aggression and interference by these powers, advocating for a Middle East free from external control. Iran plays a central role in providing significant military aid, training, and funding to other members.
The Iranian media has released a video of Haniyeh’s visit, hours before his death. He was seen talking to reporters.
