Ismail Haniyeh, a prominent Hamas leader, was assassinated in Tehran, casting a shadow over the fragile ceasefire negotiations between Israel and Hamas. As the diplomatic face of Hamas, Haniyeh played a crucial role in talks brokered by Qatar, the US, and Egypt. His death raises questions about the future of these efforts, especially as accusations fly between Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu and the Palestinian group over stalled truce proposals

The death of Haniyeh, a significant figure in Hamas’s political and diplomatic structure, has raised serious questions about the future of ongoing ceasefire negotiations. American officials had recently indicated that these talks, mediated by Qatar, the United States, and Egypt, were close to yielding a temporary ceasefire and a potential hostage release deal.

However, the assassination has cast doubt on the feasibility of these efforts moving forward.

                Perfectly apt response for a person that thinks economic growth = right to invasion. But rules are rules so I understand.
