Iran : Haniyeh killed by short-range missile

On Saturday, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) disclosed that Ismail Haniyeh, the head of Hamas’s political bureau, was assassinated in Tehran with a short-range missile.

The assassination of Haniyeh was orchestrated by the Zionist regime with American support,” the IRGC stated, adding, “Investigations revealed that the terrorist attack involved a short-range projectile with a 7-kilogram warhead, which was fired from outside the guests’ accommodation area, causing a powerful explosion.”

The Guard concluded by pointing out that “the adventurous and terrorist Zionist regime will face severe punishment for this crime at the appropriate time and place.”

Iran and Hamas have both accused Israel of orchestrating the killing and have vowed retaliation. Israel has neither confirmed nor denied involvement.
