‘It’s a thunderbolt,’ say Palestinians of Hamas chief’s killing
Gaza Strip: The killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in an air strike in Tehran Wednesday came as a “thunderbolt” to war-weary Gazans, with some expressing disappointment Iran was unable to “protect him.” “This news is like a thunderbolt, something unbelievable,” said Wael Qudayh, 35, a resident of the central city of Deir Al-Balah. On Wednesday, Hamas and the Iranian Revolutionary Guards announced that Haniyeh had been killed in Tehran in an Israeli air strike. He was in the Iranian capital to attend the swearing-in on Tuesday of President Masoud Pezeshkian.
