The Board of Trustees and the International Students of Yazd University have issued statements condemning the assassination of Dr. Ismail Haniyeh, the head of Hamas' political bureau, and one of his guards. Both statements express profound sorrow and condemnation for this act of violence and extend condolences to the family of Dr. Haniyeh, the Palestinian nation, the Islamic Resistance Movement, and all supporters of Palestine's cause. They acknowledge the martyrdom of Dr. Haniyeh as a symbol of the unwavering spirit of resistance intertwined with the Palestinian people, affirming that such acts of terrorism will not halt the fight for freedom.
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
"Do not think of those who have been killed in the way of Allah as dead. No, they are alive, receiving sustenance from their Lord."
The martyrdom of Ismail Haniyeh, a senior leader of the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement "Hamas," has been a source of inspiration for many freedom seekers worldwide due to his tireless efforts and continuous struggle for freedom and justice. His death marks another instance of the failure and frustration of the Zionist regime in achieving its objectives, reflecting desperation in the face of resistance fighters.
The assassination of Dr. Ismail Haniyeh, a legitimate leader of the Palestinian people, is a clear indication of the terrorist nature of the criminal mafia ruling the occupied lands of Palestine. It represents a violation of international law and a threat to regional and global peace and security. The ongoing actions of the Israeli regime and its allies, including the assassination of Palestinian resistance leaders, are perceived as part of a broader agenda of genocide against Palestinians.
We join in the grief of the Islamic Ummah and pray to Almighty God for the elevation of this dear martyr's status and patience for the Palestinian nation and the resistance axis.
