Thousands mourn Hamas’s Ismail Haniyeh at funeral procession in Iran

Al Jazeera  

Iran held funeral processions with calls for revenge after the killing in Tehran of Hamas political chief Ismail Haniyeh in an attack blamed on Israel. In the capital’s city centre, thousands of mourners carrying posters of Haniyeh and Palestinian flags gathered for the ceremony at Tehran University. It came just hours after Israel targeted and killed top Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr in a retaliatory strike on the Lebanese capital, Beirut, raising fears of a wider regional war. All efforts, he said, should be “leading to a ceasefire” in Gaza and the release of captives taken during the Hamas-led attack on October 7 in southern Israel which began nearly 10 months of war.
