George Galloway described the man behind the Oct 7 terror attacks as having “died a martyr’s death”.

The former MP said Yahya Sinwar, the head of Hamas, “would appear to have been murdered” after he was killed by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) last week.

Mr Galloway also described the death of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in an Israeli airstrike last month as a “martyrdom”

The former Labour MP won election to Parliament on a pro-Palestinian ticket for the Workers Party of Britain in the Rochdale by-election in February but lost the seat at the general election.
