Today marks the first anniversary of the assassination of prominent Palestinian leader Ismail Haniyeh, head of the political bureau of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas),
who was martyred on July 31, 2024, in an Israeli assassination operation that targeted his residence in the Iranian capital, Tehran.

Haniyeh’s assassination came as part of a series of Israeli attempts to eliminate top leaders of the Palestinian resistance. His loss left a profound impact on the Palestinian political and popular landscape, given his national symbolism and pivotal role in leading the movement and confronting the occupation.
