Hamas Leader Speaks in Iran of Israel’s ‘Political Isolation’

Voice of America News reports: “Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, on a visit to Iran on Tuesday, said Israel is experiencing ‘unprecedented political isolation,’ a day after the U.N. Security Council called for a cease-fire in the Gaza war.

‘Although this resolution came late and there may be some gaps that need to be filled, the resolution itself indicates that the Israeli occupation is experiencing unprecedented political isolation,’ Haniyeh told a news conference in Tehran after a meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian.

He added that Israel is ‘losing political cover and protection even in the Security Council’ and ‘the U.S. is unable to impose its will on the international community.’

‘The Zionist entity’ has ‘not succeeded in achieving any of its military or strategic objectives’ after more than five months of war, Haniyeh said.

Haniyeh and the Palestinian delegation also met with Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, according to a statement on Khamenei’s website…”
