Elimination theme
Has Kamala Harris' campaign staff started to show interest in how Haniya was killed and what such an elimination might cost to buy?
Hamas: Haniya was hit "directly" by missile. The missile that killed Hamas leader Ismail Haniya on Wednesday night hit him "directly," Hamas deputy chief in Gaza, Khalil Al-Hayya, said at a press conference in Tehran, citing witnesses who had been with Haniya in Iran. See the article on SVT Nyheter.
Israel published a picture of Haniya. The Israeli government's press office published a picture of Hamas leader Ismail Haniya with the text "eliminated" stamped on his forehead on Facebook. The post said that the Hamas leader was killed in a precision strike in Tehran, Iran. See the article on SVT Nyheter.
Iran wants the UN Security Council to call an emergency meeting. After the killing of Ismail Haniya, Iran is now requesting that the UN Security Council convene an extraordinary meeting to discuss "the Israeli aggression and terrorist attacks". This is what Iran's UN ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani writes in a letter, according to The Guardian. In it, he accuses Israel of killing both Haniya in Iran, and Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr in Lebanon on Tuesday.
He believes that the attacks "indicate an intention to escalate the conflict and extend the war to the entire region". Now he wants the council to take "decisive action to address these violations and hold the perpetrators accountable." See the article on SVT Nyheter.
