Ghania played a key role in the negotiations on the Gaza Strip

At Pezeshkian's inauguration ceremony in Tehran on Tuesday, July 30, Ismail Ghania was among the guests of honor.

He was the one who saw the value of the agreement and played an important role in achieving certain breakthroughs in the negotiations. At this stage, it is unclear how this will affect the ceasefire negotiations, CNN writes about Ghaniya's death, citing its source.
