Condolence Message from the Prime Minister of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan on the Martyrdom of Ismail Haniyeh

الحمد لله رب العلمین و الصلوة و السلام علی أشرف المرسلين سیدنا محمد و علی آله و صحبه و من تبعهم باحسان الی یوم الدین. قال الله تبارک و تعالی: مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ رِجَالٌ صَدَقُوا مَا عَاهَدُوا اللَّهَ عَلَيْهِ فَمِنْهُم مَّن قَضَى نَحْبَهُ وَمِنْهُم مَّن يَنتَظِرُ وَمَا بَدَّلُوا تَبْدِيلًا (۲۳) الاحزاب. صدق الله العظیم. وبعد

I am deeply saddened by the martyrdom of Ismail Haniyeh, the esteemed head of the political office of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas). The targeted assassination of Martyr Haniyeh in Tehran by the Zionist regime is not only a heartbreaking loss but also a blatant violation of international laws and norms. This egregious act by the Zionist regime occurred while he was a guest of the government, highlighting the enemies' utter contempt for diplomatic sanctity and the principles of international conduct.
The persistent silence of Western institutions and human rights organizations over the past ten months, during which the genocide of women and children in Gaza has unfolded, starkly reveals the true nature and biases of these entities. I unequivocally condemn this cowardly and unjustifiable attack on Martyr Ismail Haniyeh. May Allah grant him and all the martyrs of Gaza the highest ranks alongside the martyrs of Badr and Uhud. We remain unwavering in our belief that their noble sacrifices will ultimately pave the way for liberation.
This heinous crime by the Zionist regime underscores its failure to achieve substantial military gains in the Gaza conflict. Despite its relentless campaign of genocide against the Palestinian people, the regime's strategic objectives remain unmet. The assassination of Hamas's political leader is a desperate and transparent attempt to divert attention from its military shortcomings and failures. The martyrdom of Ismail Haniyeh is a profound loss for the Islamic Ummah, yet it will only strengthen our resolve. The Palestinian resistance will undoubtedly continue their righteous struggle for rights and freedom.
In light of these events, I urgently call upon the international community, particularly the influential nations of the region and the world, to take immediate and decisive action to halt the Zionist regime's atrocities in Gaza. It is imperative to prevent the further escalation of this conflict, which threatens to engulf the entire region in flames. The responsibility for any expansion of this war rests solely with the Zionist regime and its supporters.

Respectfully,
Prime Minister of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan
