"We are in Tehran to express our condolences over the martyrdom of Lt. Gen. Qasem Soleimani, to the Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the government and the people of Iran," Haniyah said in his speech.
He added: "The brutal crime committed by the US reflects their criminal spirit that has caused these crimes and bloodshed in the land of Palestine. The criminal spirit that led to the death of martyred Soleimani was the same criminal spirit of the Zionist regime, who committed many crimes and have assassinated the leaders of resistance and Palestine."
