Saudi Arabia condemns the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, calling it a violation of Iran's sovereignty. The incident escalates tensions amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza, where civilian casualties continue to rise.


Saudi Arabia has condemned the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the Hamas Political Bureau, during his visit to Tehran, labeling it a serious violation of Iran's sovereignty. This incident has heightened tensions in the region, particularly in light of the ongoing conflict in Gaza, where Israeli military actions have resulted in significant casualties among Palestinian civilians. Saudi Deputy Foreign Minister Walid bin Abdul Karim Al-Khuraiji expressed deep concern over the escalating violence and called for the international community to hold Israeli forces accountable for their actions. He emphasized the need for a unified response to protect Palestinian rights and restore peace in the region. Haniyeh's assassination, which occurred while he was attending the inauguration ceremony of Iran's new President, has further complicated the already tense relations between Israel, Iran, and Saudi Arabia, with accusations of Israeli involvement in the attack.

  • The assassination of Ismail Haniyeh marks a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestinian groups, particularly Hamas, which has been at the forefront of resistance against Israeli occupation. Following the assassination, both Iran and Hamas have pointed fingers at Israel, while the Israeli government has remained largely silent, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hinting at possible involvement. The situation in Gaza has been dire, with reports indicating over 131,000 Palestinians have been killed or wounded since the onset of hostilities on October 7, 2023. The humanitarian crisis continues to worsen, with shortages of essential supplies and a collapsing health system. As tensions mount, the international community faces increasing pressure to intervene and address the ongoing violence and humanitarian disaster.
