Iran says it will "punish" Israel for the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh.

The US will deploy additional warships and fighter jets to the Middle East to help defend Israel from possible attacks by Iran and its proxies, the Pentagon said.

Missile defence forces were placed on a state of increased readiness to deploy, the Pentagon said, adding that its commitment to defend Israel was “ironclad”.

Iran’s leader Ayatollah Khamenei has vowed “harsh punishment” against Israel for the assassination of Haniyeh.

Haniyeh, 62, was widely considered Hamas’s overall leader and played a key role in negotiations aimed at reaching a ceasefire in the Gaza war.

    No. They’ve simply radicalized themselves beyond the point of sanity. I’m wondering what’s up. They were screaming about the Zionist mods of the politics Community here having banned them. Yet here they are still posting. I wouldn’t put lying past them.
