HAMAS, HEZBOLLAH MOURN DEATH OF IRAN’S’ RAISI
The Palestinian Islamist terror group Hamas mourns the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, saying he had supported it during the ongoing war with ISRAEL.
“These leaders supported the legitimate struggle of our people against the Zionist entity, provided valued support to the Palestinian resistance, and made tireless efforts in solidarity and support in all forums and fields for our people in the steadfast Gaza Strip during the Battle of Al-Aqsa Flood,” Hamas says referring to the current war with Israel which began on October 7 when Hamas launched a devastating assault on Israel, killing some 1,200 people and taking 252 hostages.
“They also made significant political and diplomatic efforts to stop the Zionist aggression against our Palestinian people,” says Hamas in a statement.
Lebanon’s Hezbollah terror group also mourns Raisi as a “protector of resistance movements.”
“Hezbollah in Lebanon extends its deepest condolences,” the group says in a statement, adding that it knew Raisi “closely for a long time” and that he was “a strong supporter, and a staunch defender of our causes… and a protector of the resistance movements.”
