In a solemn ceremony at Tehran University on Thursday, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei, the leader of the Islamic Revolution, led funeral prayers for Hamas Political Bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh and his security guard, Wasim Abu Shaaban, both assassinated by “Israel” during Haniyeh’s visit to Tehran.
A large number of Iranian mourners gathered to pay their respects and participate in the funeral procession for the fallen Hamas leader and his bodyguard.
Haniyeh had been in Tehran to attend the inauguration of Iran’s newly-elected President, Masoud Pezeshkian, along with other prominent figures from the Axis of Resistance.
Ghalibaf: Era of ‘Israel’s’ unchallenged attacks has ended
During the ceremony, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf addressed the mourners, condemning the Israeli regime for its actions. He asserted that the Israeli occupation’s persistent crimes stem from its inability to counter the capabilities of the Resistance effectively.
Ghalibaf warned that any further aggression by the Israeli occupation would be a strategic error, emphasizing that the era of unchallenged attacks by the Israeli occupation and its ally, the United States, has ended.
He assured that Iran would respond appropriately at a time and place of its choosing and that the Israeli occupation would face severe consequences for its actions.
