The Palestinian group says it shares the “pain and sorrow” of the Iranian people after the death of Raisi and other officials, expressing “full solidarity” with Iran.

Hamas added that the late Iranian officials have a history of “honourable stances” in support of the Palestinian people and resistance against Israel, including efforts to stop the ongoing war on Gaza.

“We are confident that the Islamic Republic of Iran will overcome the implications of this great loss; the brotherly Iranian people have institutions that can deal with this severe crisis,” Hamas said in a statement.
