The Middle East is on the brink of war!
IranIsrael: After the killing of Hamas chief Ismail Haniyya in an Israeli attack in Iran, the possibility of war between Israel and Iran has increased. Iran’s Revolutionary Guards vowed to take “harsh” revenge for Haniyya’s murder and have completely blamed Israel for his death. On the other hand, the possibility of war between Lebanon and Israel has also increased. After the killing of Haniyya, Israel has also killed Hezbollah’s military commander Fuad Shukar. This has also increased tension between Israel and Lebanon. On the other hand, the death of 12 children and teenagers in a Hezbollah rocket attack on a football field in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights has worsened the situation.
India, America, Britain, France, Poland issued advisory
Amid rising tensions in the Middle East, India, the US, Britain, France, Poland and other countries have issued advisories for their citizens living in Israel and the Middle East. At the same time, in view of a possible war, Israel and its allies have started strengthening their military arsenal in the region.
The Revolutionary Guards vowed revenge
Iran’s Revolutionary Guards on Saturday released more details about Haniya’s killing, vowing “harsh revenge”. The Revolutionary Guards said Hamas political chief Ismail Haniya was killed by a short-range rocket attack and accused the US of supporting the Israeli attack. Their statement said there will be retaliation against Israel’s “terrorist Zionist regime”. They will receive harsh punishment at the right time and the right place.
Israel is the target of Hezbollah
Tehran said it expected Lebanon’s Hezbollah to launch even more intense attacks inside Israel and not limit its response to military targets. Iran’s mission to the United Nations indicated that the killing of Hezbollah commander Shukr had changed the scenario. “We expect… Hezbollah to choose more targets and strike deeper in its response. Second, that it will not limit its response to military targets,” Iran’s mission said.
America will send warships and fighter jets to the Middle East
On the other hand, in view of the situation in the Middle East, the Pentagon has announced that the US will send additional warships and fighter jets to the Middle East. It will also keep an aircraft carrier in the region to protect Israel from possible attacks by Iran and its allies and to protect the US soldiers stationed in the region. Israel has already intensified attacks in Lebanon. Lebanese security sources told AFP that a Hezbollah member was killed in an Israeli drone attack in southern Lebanon on Saturday. Apart from this, Israel attacked a convoy of trucks entering Lebanon from Syria on Friday night.
Our goal is to destroy Hamas: Netanyahu
Meanwhile, US President Joe Biden has urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to take advantage of the opportunity for a ceasefire with Hamas. Biden said Haniyeh’s killing has not helped efforts to negotiate an end to the war. Netanyahu says his goal is to eliminate Hamas, but on Saturday Israeli forces advanced further into Gaza and the West Bank. At least 15 Palestinians were killed in an airstrike on a school sheltering displaced people in Gaza City on Saturday. This was followed by two attacks in the West Bank, which killed nine people, including a local Hamas commander.
