Qatar: Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh will be buried in Qatar’s capital Doha today. Earlier, he was given a final farewell in Tehran yesterday i.e. on Thursday. Thousands of people joined the procession. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei led the funeral procession. After this, Haniyeh’s body was brought to Qatar.
According to AFP report, Haniyeh will be buried in a cemetery in Lusail in Doha. Before this, funeral prayers will be offered for Haniyeh in Qatar’s largest Imam Muhammad bin Abdul Wahab Mosque.
For the first time after the killing of Hamas chief Haniyeh and Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr, Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah’s reaction came. He has promised to take revenge for the assassination of Ismail from Israel. During Shukr’s funeral, Nasrallah addressed the public on TV from a secret place.
During this, he said that at present the Israelis seem very happy, but in the coming days they will cry a lot. Nasrallah declared an open war with Israel on all fronts. He said that Israel has crossed the red line. A war has been started by killing Shukr. Israelis do not know how we will respond to these deaths.
Just a few hours after Nasrallah’s threat, Hezbollah carried out an air strike on Israel. According to a CNN report, Hezbollah fired dozens of rockets from Lebanon on northern Israel. According to the Israeli army, only 5 of these rockets were able to enter the Israeli border. There is no report of any damage in this attack. Hezbollah said that they fired rockets from the northern area of Metzuba.
Shortly before this attack, Netanyahu addressed the public on TV. He said that Israel is fully prepared for any situation. He further said that if any action is taken against Israel from anywhere, it will have to pay a heavy price.
