We remain unequivocal in our condemnation of Hamas, a listed terror organization in Canada, and are aware of reports of the death of Ismail Haniyeh. Canada is closely monitoring the evolving situation. We are gravely concerned about the prospect for further escalation across the region and urge all involved actors exercise restrain and de-escalate.
My call to the Lebanese is to join hands and demonstrate unity.
Israel couldn't have attacked all these countries without US weapons, without US political support, without US military support, and without US intelligence support.
He was not only a leader. He was the wise man.
The assassination of leader Ismail Haniyeh is a cowardly act and will not go unanswered.
