IRAN'S REVOLUTIONARY GUARD ACCUSES 'CRIMINAL U.S. GOVERNMENT' OF COMPLICITY IN THE ASSASSINATION OF ISMAIL HANIYEH

Iran: 'Israel will pay at the appropriate time and place.'

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard claim that Ismail Haniyeh's assassination was carried out 'with the support of the criminal U.S. government.' Additionally, they promise revenge: 'The adventurous and terrorist Zionist regime will receive a decisive response to this crime.'

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps declared that Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh was killed "by a short-range shot with a warhead of about 7 kg, which caused a massive explosion, outside his room."

"The act of terror of killing Haniyeh was planned and carried out by the Zionist regime (Israel) with the support of the criminal U.S. government," claim the  Iranian Corps. They further issued threats: "The adventurous and terrorist Zionist regime will receive a decisive response to this crime. Tehran's revenge will be harsh and delivered at the right time, place, and manner."

 

  

Haniyeh and the assassination scene

 

Earlier today, the permanent delegation of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations warned that Hezbollah's response to Israel's assassination of one of its senior commanders, Fuad Shukr, in a suburb of Lebanon's capital, Beirut, might lead the militant group to attack many "wider and deeper civilian and military targets within Israel." 

EDITOR'S NOTE:  Criminal U.S. Government? ... The Iranians got that right in referring to the Biden-Harris government.
