“Do not be repeated in life” … Gallant reveals the scenes of Haniyeh’s assassination and thanks!

Former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant revealed the details of the decision to assassinate the head of the political bureau of Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, and the leader of Hezbollah Fouad Shukr on the same day.

In an interview with the Israeli Channel 12, Gallant said that after the martyrdom of the children in Majdal Shams as a result of missiles fired by Hezbollah, he told the Chief of Staff: “We must liquidate thanks. In fact, we made the decision, and it could have occurred within days or even a week.

Meanwhile, there was already a “open window” to assassinate Haniyeh, meaning that we planned to liquidate it on the night of 30-31 July.

He added: “I moved to the Mossad headquarters, I met the head of the agency, and we made together the recent briefing of the operators who were charged with the assassination of Haniyeh, and who were working in Tehran.

During the briefing, I received a call via the military secretary, saying: “We now have an opportunity to liquidate thanks.” I turned to the Mossad president and his team and told them: “Good luck, do what to do,” noting that “on that day, we were also able to assassinate Haniyeh.”

In response to a question, “There was no hesitation in carrying out the two operations by a few hours,” Gallent replied, “There were always questions and discussions. But Prime Minister (Benjamin Netanyahu) and I, and the leaders of the security system were all agreed to this decision, “stressing that” the assassination of Haniyeh was using a bomb. “

Gallant refused to disclose the bomb storage, saying: “There are details that you will need to read in my book.”

He stressed that “the United States was not previously reported to these operations,” adding: “After a short time, I received a call from the US Secretary of Defense at the time, Lloyd Austin, and asked me:” What is going on here? “.. I answered:“ This is a process that is not repeated in the age. Were you to give up such an opportunity? This is Osama bin Laden, enthusiasm. ”
