Ismail Haniyeh participates in the inauguration of the Iranian president

After arriving in Tehran, a Hamas delegation led by Ismail Haniyeh attended the inauguration ceremony of Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi today Thursday.

In his speech, Iranian President-elect Ibrahim Raisi said, after taking a constitutional oath before Parliament for the start of his new term, that his country will continue its role both in Syria than in Gaza.

Ismail Haniyeh thanked Iran last May for supplying weapons to Hamas in Gaza in its recent war with Israel, which ended with the announcement of an Egypt-mediated ceasefire truce, which was implemented after 11 days of the most violent military escalation between the two sides since 2014. It has caused a large number of deaths, including dozens of children, most of them Palestinians, and destroyed the infrastructure of the Gaza Strip, which will need hundreds millions of dollars for reconstruction.

He also sent a message to Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei in about the situation in Gaza, according to the Fars news agency.

He revealed that Hamas has 3 underground missile factories in Gaza.
