Iranian President Massoud Pezheskian warned that “terrorists will regret their cowardly act” in his statement on the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniya in Tehran.
He said his country will defend its territorial integrity and make those responsible regret their actions.
Hamas blames Israel, which has yet to comment on Haniya’s killing.
Massoud Pezheskian was sworn in as President of Iran yesterday, Tuesday, while meeting with Ismail Haniya, who attended the inauguration ceremony.
