High-level Iranian officials are set to meet with Tehran’s allies in Lebanon, Iraq and Yemen later today to review potential responses to the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, reports Reuters.
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has pledged to deliver “harsh punishment” for the killing of Haniyeh on Iranian soil, which Iran blames on Israel, fueling concerns of a wider regional war.
