Iran threatens revenge as tensions escalate after assassinations

In a grave threat, the commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, Hossein Salami, has conveyed a message to Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah that Enemies of the nation should be prepared for revenge after the killing of the Lebanese Hezbollah movement’s commander, Fuad Shukr and Hamas’s Ismail Haniyeh.

The United Nations Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) has recently said it has surveyed the shelters in the Gaza Strip, and the agency has confirmed cases of Hepatitis A at 40,000 since the start of the war last October.

The prospects of a cease-fire all around among Palestinians in Gaza have been described as ‘shattered’ following the murder of Hamas political leader Haniyeh. Dignitaries and ordinary people turned up in thousands in the Qatari capital, Doha, earlier today to pay their last respects to Haniyeh.

Enumeration of casualties suggests that the conflict has been destructive, with 39,480 persons, including 16,314 children, killed and 91,128 others injured in Gaza due to Israel’s aggression.

Further, about 1 139 people were reported dead in Israel as a result of Hamas attacks on October 7, and over 200 people were abducted. Thus, the situation remains tense, and the question remains open: Is the international community following the progress of the cycle of violence in the region?
