Top official: Iran made preparations for harsh punishment of Israel

A senior advisor to the Leader of Iranโ€™s Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei says the country has set the stage to exact a severe punishment against the Israeli regime for assassinating top Hamas leader in Tehran last week.

The political adviser to the Iranian Leader, Rear Admiral Ali Shamkhani, posted a message on his X social media account on Saturday to also censure the Israeli regimeโ€™s ongoing onslaught against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

He wrote, โ€œThe only goal of the Israeli regime in killing the worshippers of the Al-Tabin school in Gaza and assassinating martyr Ismail Haniyeh in Iran is warmongering and leading ceasefire talks to failure.โ€

Shamkhani added that Iran has gone through the legal, diplomatic, and media processes for a retaliatory operation and โ€œthe preparations for a severe punishment of the regime, that only understands the language of force, have been made.โ€

Israel assassinated Haniyeh, an official guest of Iran who enjoyed diplomatic immunity, on July 31 in the Iranian capital Tehran by targeting him at his residence.

Iran has vowed a crushing response, warning Israel it would be harsher than the mid-April drone and missile operation that only targeted military and strategic sites inside Israel.
