In an interview with an Iranian media outlet, Khaled Qaddoumi, the Hamas envoy to Tehran, revealed that Iran's leadership is preparing a "definite and decisive" response to Israel's killing of Haniyeh. The retaliation, he emphasized, will be carried out at a "substantial level."

Representative of Hamas resistance movement in Iran says the four-day ceasefire reveals the fact that Israeli regime is on verge of topple and that its struggles are in line with forced displacement of Palestinians and also achieving information on resistance commanders.
