News - Israel-Hamas hostage negotiations expected to be suspended due to Haniyeh's murder

Hostage negotiations between the Israeli government and the radical Palestinian movement Hamas are likely to be frozen for weeks or even months, reports Israel's Channel 13 television. Members of the Israeli Cabinet have been informed of the prediction that Shiite Hezbollah movement military leader Sayyed Fouad Ali Shokr’s killing in Beirut and Hamas political bureau head Ismail Haniyeh’s killing in Tehran will lead to the termination of these talks. Also, it is not ruled out that Iran will launch missiles at Israel from its territory.
