Speaking with the Palestinian Information Center (PIC), Haneyya said: “Those who assassinated al-Batsh will pay a heavy price for their horrendous crime,” said Haneyya.
The Hamas chief held the Israeli occupation and Mossad spy agency responsible for the crime.
“Al-Batsh has been among Palestine’s best representatives thanks to his knowledge, work, professionalism, creativity, and inventions. He has given much to the Palestinians, Malaysians, and the entire Muslim nation,” he added.

Malaysia police on Monday released sketches of the two suspects in the shooting of Palestinian professor Fadi Mohammad al-Batsh.
The 35-year-old university lecturer who comes from the besieged Gaza Strip was gunned down outside his apartment block on Saturday at about 06:00 a.m.
The perpetrators fled the scene in motorcycles, according to police who said 14 bullets were removed from the casualty’s body after an autopsy was conducted on the cadaver.
A recording of a closed-circuit television camera near the scene showed the two assailants waiting for about 20 minutes for the lecturer to emerge from the building, police added.
Malaysia's national police chief, Mohamad Fuzi Harun, said Sunday that security has been beefed up and an investigation is underway to determine the motive behind al-Batsh's killing.
"This is an unfortunate incident that we would like to have avoided, but it has happened," Fuzi said at a news conference. "I give an assurance that we will do our best to improve the level of security, especially in Kuala Lumpur."
Fuzi said witness accounts showed that the assailants had European features and are about 180-centimeters tall.
Al-Batsh, who traveled locally and abroad to speak on Palestinian issues, was due to fly to Turkey for a conference when he was killed.
Relatives of the professor have blamed Israel's Mossad spy agency for the killing.

Malaysian police chief Mohammed Haroun on Sunday said that the Malaysian security services are still collecting information about the assassination of the Palestinian academic Fadi al-Batsh.
During a press conference on Sunday, Haroun refused to disclose any new details about the incident, saying that his country does not accuse anyone yet because the information collected so far is insufficient.
Haroun added that the suspects are believed to be Europeans, calling on the people who had witnessed anything related to the incident to go to the police and provide them with the information they have.
Fadi al-Batsh was a Palestinian electrical engineer and a university professor who lived in Malaysia for seven years.
Al-Batsh was killed in Kuala Lumpur at dawn Saturday after being shot by unknown gunmen while heading for dawn prayer. Al-Batsh's family later issued a statement accusing the Mossad of killing their son.
Kuala Lumpur police chief Datuk Seri Mazlan Lazim, as quoted by The Star newspaper, said that al-Batsh was on his way to a nearby mosque at around 6 am when two men on a motorcycle opened fire at him at Jalan Gombak.
Lazim pointed out that the two gunmen fired ten shots at him and that there were four bullet wounds on his body.
Head of the Hamas Political Bureau Ismail Haneyya accused Israel's Mossad intelligence agency of being behind the assassination.
While visiting the mourning tent opened near the house of al-Batsh's family in Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip, Haneyya told the PIC that a Hamas delegation had headed to Malaysia to meet with officials there and follow up the investigations.

As the Malaysian authorities conduct an autopsy on the body of Dr. Fadi Mohammad al-Batsh, Israel’s War Minister Avigdor Lieberman said that the government will not allow the casualty’s body to reach Gaza through Israel.
“However, if they try to transfer it through Egypt and the Rafah Border Crossing, then we won’t have any control over the matter,” said Lieberman.
“They are always blaming us for these things. With the same accuracy rate of their claims, it would be possible to also blame James Bond,” he claimed. “We don’t need to comment on every remark made by [Hamas leader Ismail] Haniyeh. We are focusing on what’s happening along our borders.”
“We don’t allow the bodies of Hamas terrorists to enter the Gaza Strip,” Lieberman said when he was asked about the possibility of Batsh being buried in the coastal enclave. “We won’t allow the transfer of the engineer’s body from Malaysia to Gaza for a burial”.
“However, if they try to transfer it through Egypt and the Rafah Border Crossing, then we won’t have any control over the matter, even though yesterday evening we conveyed our position through the acceptable channels,” he added.
Israel’s Education Minister Naftali Bennett also said he would work to prevent the return of Batsh's body to Gaza until the bodies of captive Israeli soldiers held by Hamas in Gaza are returned to Israel.
On Sunday morning, the Malaysian authorities started an autopsy on the body of Dr. Fadi al-Batsh.
Batash, 35, was an expert in alternative energy and unmanned aircraft systems. He was reportedly shot by masked gunmen at 6 a.m. (local time) while on his way to dawn prayers at a mosque.
For the past decade, Batash had been living in Malaysia, where he worked as a teacher at a private university and was active in a Malaysian charity for Palestinian welfare.
Dr. Batsh’s father has requested from the Malaysian authorities that his body be sent back to Gaza and that a probe be immediately launched into the assassination.

During his academic career, al-Batsh has published 18 journal articles in international journals and conferences. He participated in an international conference in Japan. He also took part at international research conferences in Britain, Finland, Spain and Saudi Arabia, as well as in local conferences in Malaysia.
Al-Batsh received many prestigious scientific awards, including the 2016 Malaysian Khazanah Award, the highest award given in Malaysia. He was given this award for his scientific and academic excellence and achievement of a number of inventions, and he was the first Palestinian to win the Khazanah scholarship and the first Arab scholar to win the Best Researcher Award.
At the time, al-Batsh said, “I wanted to convey a message to the world that Palestinians are insistent to be creative and nothing could stop them.” He pointed out that the Khazanah Scholarship was “reserved for Malaysian students only, before the government agreed to include Palestinian students and I was the first Palestinian and Arab to win it.”
The family of the martyr said he was supposed to leave Malaysia on Sunday to Turkey to head an international conference on power.
Al-Batsh dedicated his latest posts on social media to the Palestinian journalist martyr Yasser Murtaja, who was shot by the Israeli military two weeks ago while covering protests in eastern Gaza borders.
Al-Batsh tweeted, speaking of Murtaja, “May God have mercy on you. You are the martyr of the truth that Zionists wanted to hide by killing you … Yasser, a young man with a beautiful smile and face. You are a free man. I loved you, although I never met you. We will follow your path.”
Al-Batsh’s father told Aljazeera that the family holds the Israeli Mossad responsible, calling on the Malaysian government to open an urgent investigation to reveal the circumstances of the assassination.
He said that his son was “very smart in the field of electrical engineering, and has won several international awards in the field, and that is why Israel saw him as a threat.”
