Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei says that Hamas was alive and well despite the death of its leader Yahya Sinwar in an Israeli military operation in Gaza.
“His loss is certainly painful for the resistance front” against Israel, “but it will not end at all with the martyrdom of Sinwar”, Khamenei says.
