Ismail Haniyeh, the head of Hamas' political bureau, stated that the occupation's objective is to attack Iran and the axis of resistance, stressing that Iran had a significant part in constructing this army that surfaced during the Battle of Sword of Jerusalem (Saif al-Quds).

Iranian NOURNEWS interview with Haniyeh:

According to an interview with the Iranian NOURNEWS, Haniyeh asserted that the Zionist entity attacks the Islamic Republic and the axis of resistance consistently. It is also pursuing political moves and attempting to form genuine military alliances, with one of its aims being to besiege Iran.

He added that Trump was clear when he presented the deal of the century, since his vision was directed towards Iran as the enemy of the Arab world and not "Israel." Therefore, Trump would do anything to keep things accelerated in the region, attract continuous American support and intimidate Arab countries. 

Haniyeh affirmed that the occupation's government is unable to negotiate with the authorities nor fight the resistance.

He went on to say that the Zionists are no longer able to impose equations in the area, and any conflict initiated with the Islamic Republic, similar to what occurred with the Palestinian resistance, would make them the losers in this clash. He added that the US exit from the area would have an impact on the Israeli entity as well as the nations whose legitimacy is connected to the American presence.

Haniyeh to Iran:

According to Haniyeh, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi confirmed that the Palestinian cause is critical, and speaking within the political framework of the resistance at the Iranian president's inauguration ceremony sends a message that the resistance is in a position of acceptance and legitimacy.

Haniyeh had conveyed to President Raisi a message of congratulations and wishes from the resistance and the oppressed people of Palestine, from all across the country and around the world.

Haniyeh revealed from Tehran that he will be dedicating the victory of the Sword of Jerusalem (Saif al-Quds) to Iran's new president and people.
