TEHRAN – Iran’s High Council for Human Rights has issued a strong condemnation of the Israeli regime's acts of terror, including the assassination and massacre of Palestinians and the Resistance leaders.

In a statement released on Sunday, the council highlighted that those who supply arms and provide financial and political support to the Israeli regime, particularly the United States and certain European nations, share responsibility for these crimes.

The council referred to Yahya Sinwar, the Hamas leader who was martyred by Israeli forces in Gaza, as a hero and a symbol of Resistance, noting that he had spent 22 years imprisoned by Israel.

“He was ultimately martyred while fighting against the occupying regime, armed and ready,” the statement remarked, referencing the final moments of Sinwar’s life, which were recorded by an Israeli drone in Rafah.

The statement asserted that the apartheid Israeli regime and its leaders were mistaken in believing that the assassination of Resistance fighters would enable them to fulfill their malicious objectives in Gaza and Lebanon. 

Yahya Sinwar was assassinated in an Israeli drone strike on October 16 in the Gaza Strip.
