TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard said Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was assassinated in Tehran.

No one immediately claimed responsibility for the assassination but suspicion immediately fell on Israel, which has vowed to kill Haniyeh and other leaders of Hamas over the group’s Oct. 7 attack on Israel that killed 1,200 people and saw some 250 others taken hostage.

Iran’s statement gave no details on how Haniyeh was killed.

Iranian state television reported on his death early Wednesday, and analysts immediately began blaming Israel for the attack.

Israel itself did not immediately comment but it often doesn’t when it comes to assassination carried out by their Mossad intelligence agency.

He was in Tehran to celebrate the new Iranian president what’s funny is that the ayatollah tweeted about welcoming them all to Iran I bet Haniyah wishes he could have declined that invite lol

They reached out to Tehran and got him. I would think Hamas leaders wherever they are are noting this. They are not safe. ANYWHERE.
