Putin Would Benefit: Could Russia Kill Hamas Leader

It would be beneficial for Putin: could Russia kill Hamas leader Dzvenislava Moshovskaya

On the morning of July 31, it became known that Hamas leader Ismail Ghaniya was killed in Tehran. Iranian authorities report that those involved should be severely punished.

Political scientist Igor Reiterovich told Channel 24 that Iran directly accused Israel of eliminating the Hamas leader. However, the Israeli military declined to comment on his death.

Activities of intelligence services

Reiterovich noted that the involvement of other intelligence services in the death of Ismail Ghania should not be ruled out. There are those who may be interested in escalating the situation in the Middle East.

This could be Russia – it would be beneficial for Vladimir Putin if Iran began some kind of military action against Israel now. This could distract the US, – the political scientist suggested.

However, in his opinion, such actions by Russia would be difficult to hide.

How the liquidation took place

According to Igor Reiterovich, the murder of the Hamas leader is a failure of the Iranian security system. This allowed either the plane to fly into their airspace, or someone who had been preparing for a long time launched some kind of device with explosives from Iranian territory.

I think that perhaps we will find out who did it, because Iran promised retaliation. This story is also important because Ismail Ganiya was hiding in this country, but he was found there too. This may be a hint that everyone will be punished for their crimes, wherever they are, he said.
