Sinwar's Appointment Proves Israel's Goal of Assassinating Resistance Leaders Fails: Hezbollah

News - Middle East: Lebanon's resistance movement Hezbollah has hailed the election of Yahya Sinwar as the new political leader of Hamas, saying the appointment once again proves Israel's goals of assassinating the resistance group’s leaders have failed.

Hezbollah made the remarks in a statement on Wednesday after Sinwar succeeded his predecessor Ismail Haniyeh, who was assassinated in the Iranian capital Tehran, in an attack blamed on Israel.

It also noted that Sinwar’s election is sending “a strong message to Israel, the United States and allies that Hamas is united in its decision, solid in its principles, firm in its important choices, and determined” to continue its path of resistance.

Hezbollah further stated that choosing Sinwar as Hamas chief “at this important time” and in the midst of war boosts the determination of Palestinians as well as the regional countries to unify efforts and press ahead with resistance until the complete liberation of Palestine.

In a statement on Tuesday, Hamas announced the selection of Sinwar as head of the movement’s political bureau to succeed Haniyeh.

Haniyeh was assassinated in an attack on his residence in the early hours of July 31, in the Iranian capital Tehran, where he had attended the swearing-in ceremony of Iran’s newly-elected president, Masoud Pezeshkian, a day earlier.

He was the second high-profile Hamas leader to be assassinated by Israel since Operation Al-Aqsa Storm on October 7, 2023, after Salah al-Arouri, who was assassinated in southern Beirut on January 2.

Sinwar, a high-ranking Hamas military commander, previously became the leader of Hamas in the besieged Gaza Strip in February 2017, taking over from Haniyeh.

He was a key architect of the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm that Hamas launched against the occupying regime in response to its decades-long campaign of oppression and devastation against Palestinians.

Sinwar, 61, is also among the top Hamas targets sought by the Israeli regime, which has reportedly put a $400,000 bounty on his head following the October 7 operation
