Iran has threatened to retaliate against Israel for the assassination of Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran. Mohsen Rezaie, former commander of the Revolutionary Guard, warned that "Israel will face consequences" for the strike. The Guard, a powerful force loyal to Iran's supreme leader, has pledged to avenge Haniyeh's killing. Israel has not claimed responsibility for the attack. The incident has raised concerns about regional stability and the potential for further escalation. The Revolutionary Guard's response is anticipated, as it operates independently of Iran's conventional military.
