Israel and United States Cannot Wipe Out Hamas, Iran Says

Iran – The Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said on Tuesday that Israel and the United States will never be able to wipe out Hamas and that Israel could only secure the liberation of its hostages in Gaza with a political solution to the conflict.

In a speech at the United Nations in Geneva in which he described the Palestinian group as a freedom movement.

"Israel and the United States will never be able to eliminate Hamas," Amir-Abdollahian said. 

He added: "Israel, which was vowed to wipe out Tehran-backed Hamas, could not have the hostages taken by Hamas during a deadly rampage on October 7 freed through war. He said only a political solution could achieve this.

Amir-Abdollahian was speaking at a meeting alongside his counterparts from other Middle Eastern countries.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei appealed last month to Muslim states with political ties with Israel to at least cut them for “a limited time.” 

He had previously called for an Islamic oil and food embargo on Israel.
