Anwar reaches out to Hamas leader, slams ‘coward and insolent’ Israel

Anwar Ibrahim launched a fresh salvo against Israel following the airstrike which killed Hamas leader Sheikh Ismail Hanniyeh’s three sons and two grandchildren on the first day of Aidilfitri.

In a statement this evening, the prime minister said he contacted Ismail this afternoon to express his condolences and reiterate Malaysia’s undivided support for the Hamas leader’s family and the people of Palestine.
