All you need to know about the killing of Hamas political leader Haniyeh | DW News

Last week Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stood before the US Congress in Washington, and put the regime in Iran and its proxy fighters, Hezbollah and Hamas, on notice. It wasn't a declaration of war but it was as close at it gets. The word ceasefire was not uttered even once.

Since then, two men, a Hezbollah commander and the political leader of Hamas, have been killed. Iran is blaming Israel and vowing revenge. The US today said it had no knowledge and no involvement in the killings. How is that possible?

Tonight, America's influence over Israel looks mighty weak.
Netanyahu's ability to keep his word does not.

A humiliation is a humiliation. Iranian threats are all but empty.

[borisstanislav]

No one mentions he was a billionaire when most Palestinians live in abject poverty smh.👎

[atiqumar]

Ive stopped watching netflix, reality is more surreal than anything any1 can make up!

[pcaso]

UN should be worried about their own relevance

[ronaldabrams]

Ayatollah needs to quit occupying Iran.
Ayatollah needs to quit oppressing Iranians

[pynbiangnongkhlaw]

How that haniyeh was killed in Iran the place that haniyeh is safe for him I think that Iran was killed by her self and put the blame for Isreal

[eloquentia]

Haniyeh met with the current Iranian president and later also met with the former Iranian president.

How can you speak of ceasefire when you still have hostages held by hamas?

[howardkirzner]

There was nothing “moderate “ about Haniyeh. He was a brutal terrorist responsible for the deaths of many innocents during the intifadas.

[Mrqwerty]

All this mourning for Haniyeh, but nothing for the children in the Golan heights

[Scorch]

Does Iran not realize that if they can get this dude....they can get any leader in Iran?

[dwchen]

Ismail Haniyeh had a busy schedule :
1. Meeting Iran's new president Masoud Pezeshkian in the morning.
2. Meeting Iran's late president Ebrahin Raisi at midnight.

[philipeisenberg]

UN wept, BBC wept.. What about you DW?

[ippyooo]

The UN was quiet when 10 children were killed in the Golan Heights, but when Haniyeh died, they called a meeting and there was chaos.
The UN is in mourning and sorrow.

[vyndfeo]

ACTIONS SPEAK!!!!
Iran take note!!!
STOP THE TERR0RISM!
NOW!!!

[S.W.I.F.T.]

My condolences to CNN, ВВС аnd al Jazeera, D. W., the Democrats and Kamala Harris on the loss of their friend Ismail Haniyeh.

When western mainstream media tells you that is "All you need to know", it means they don't want you to know something more important.

[JosephSuskin]

No deal without all the hostages returned.. Remember there was a ceasefire in place when Hamas attacked on Oct 7. So what is there for Israel to gain if ceasefires mean nothing to Hamas?

[merlindavilla]

Iran's security is very poor..He did not protect Raisi, how can Iran protect Haniyeh ?

[rossevans]

From October-7 2023 Israel have stated, "Wherever Hamas find refuge we will find them". Nothing has changed and there is nothing more anybody needs to know.
