Sharjah 24 – AFP: US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Wednesday that the United States was "not aware of or involved in" the killing of Hamas's political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Iran.
"I can't tell you what this means. I can tell you that the imperative of getting a ceasefire, the importance that that has for everyone, remains," Blinken said in an interview with Channel News Asia in Singapore.
"This is something we were not aware of or involved in," he said of the killing.
Haniyeh was in Iran to attend the inauguration of Iran's new president when he was killed by an Israeli air strike, “Hamas” said Wednesday.
“Hamas” vowed the "cowardly" killing of their veteran leader "will not go unanswered".
