Former Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh was killed by an explosive device that was secretly smuggled into his guesthouse in Tehran, and not by an airstrike, The New York Times reported and The Jerusalem Post has independently confirmed.

The bomb was hidden in June and used cutting-edge remote technology as has been used in the killing of Iran nuclear chief Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, according to the report and the Post’s sources. The Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps were directly responsible for security at the guesthouse in a large compound called Neshat in a high-end neighborhood of northern Tehran.

Haniyeh has visited Tehran numerous times and stayed at the same guest house all or most of those times, providing the assassins a clear target to plan for. It appears that the IRGC or those close to it initially circulated rumors that the attack was a drone strike as this could shift more responsibility for the failure of Haniyeh’s security to other bodies like the Air Force.

A controversial Tajik Taliban commander, Abdul Hamid Khorasani of the Afghan Taliban’s Badri Unit, has accused Iran of orchestrating the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh.

Iran and Israel are essentially two sides of the same coin. Iran cannot be trusted. The hand of Khamenei and his non-Islamic regime are responsible for the assassination of the martyr Haniyeh,’ he stated.

If this is true:

Iran’s outgoing intelligencd minister Esmail Khatib six days ago said “breaking up Mossad’s infiltratation network” was the ministry’s biggest accomplishment under his tenure.

Then it is impossible that Mossad planted a bomb in the house. Thus, the Iranians did this themselves.
