Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian expressed his condolences and admiration for Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, who was reported to have fought heroically in his final moments before his death. The Israeli military released a video capturing what appeared to be Sinwar's last moments, showing him sitting amidst debris, holding a piece of wood, and defiantly throwing it at a drone.
President Pezeshkian, in a statement published by Iran's state news agency IRNA, described Sinwar's death as a painful loss for freedom supporters worldwide, particularly the Palestinian people. He emphasized the ongoing struggle against aggression and the quest for freedom and liberation in occupied territories as a noble cause that transcends the loss of individual heroes.
The statement underscored the resilience and determination of those fighting for justice and sovereignty, highlighting that the battle for freedom will persist despite the challenges posed by the elimination of key figures like Sinwar. The President's words echoed a sentiment of solidarity with the Palestinian cause and a commitment to upholding the principles of justice and self-determination.
