An explosive device hidden in a heavily guarded complex where Ismail Haniyeh was known to stay in Iran was what killed him, according to a Times investigation.
Ismail Haniyeh, a top leader of Hamas, was assassinated on Wednesday by an explosive device covertly smuggled into the Tehran guesthouse where he was staying, according to seven Middle Eastern officials, including two Iranians, and an American official.
The bomb had been hidden approximately two months ago in the guesthouse, according to five of the Middle Eastern officials. The guesthouse is run and protected by the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps and is part of a large compound, known as Neshat, in an upscale neighborhood of northern Tehran.
Mr. Haniyeh was in Iran’s capital for the presidential inauguration. The bomb was detonated remotely, the five officials said, once it was confirmed that he was inside his room at the guesthouse. The blast also killed a bodyguard.
What makes you so confident it’s Israeli officials leaking the info? The plot would be pretty easy to unravel after the fact by anyone involved in the investigation
Explain to me how they could easily tell it was a bomb that was placed there 2 months ago. And that it was detonated remotely. And all the other details.
“I don’t know” is somewhat different than “I know”, you know…
I have no idea what you’re trying to say
“Explain to me how” is not a statement that should prove that any point, it’s just a pretense for theories and doubt
Probably security camera footage and some logic with when the bomb detonated.
I wouldn’t be surprised at all knowing Israel successfully pulled this off because they’ve done similar things before.
The funny part is that it was probably just a sellout that they bought with some chump change to smuggle the device in, and not some super secret undercover spy.
