Iran poised to strike Israel in retaliation for Haniyeh's assassination

Iran is reportedly preparing to launch an attack on Israel in the coming days in retaliation for the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, head of the political bureau of Hamas.

The Islamic Republic has been relocating its missile launchers and conducting military drills since last weekend, suggesting imminent plans for an attack, Caliber.Az reports per Russian media.

Tensions in the Middle East have heightened following the assassination of Haniyeh in Tehran and the killing of Hezbollah military chief Fuad Shukr in Beirut. Iran, Hamas, and Hezbollah have accused Israel of these acts and vowed retaliation.
