Israel acknowledges assassinating former Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh in Iran

Hindustan Times  

Israel on Tuesday acknowledged that it killed former Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh in Iran's capital, Tehran, and warned to “decapitate” the leadership of Houthi rebels in Yemen. and decapitate their leadership -- just as we did with Haniyeh, Sinwar, and Nasrallah in Tehran, Gaza, and Lebanon, we will do so in Hodeida and Sanaa,” news agency AFP quoted Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz as saying. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government has never admitted to killing the former Hamas chief. Haniyeh's killing had escalated fears of an all-out war between Iran and Israel in the region, prompting the US to deploy additional fighter jets and Navy warships following threats from Tehran and its allies, Hamas and Hezbollah.
