Israel Threatens New Hamas Leader with Death

Israel has threatened the new Hamas leader, Yahya Sinwar, with death after his appointment. Sinwar, who is accused of masterminding the Hamas-led attack on Israel on October 7th, is now the leader of the Palestinian organization in Gaza. In response, Israel has launched a relentless campaign, resulting in the deaths of almost 40,000 Palestinians and the destruction of Gaza. Iran and its allies, including Hezbollah, have vowed to retaliate. Diplomatic efforts are underway to prevent further escalation. The United States has called for de-escalation and is working to reach a peaceful resolution. Lufthansa has suspended flights to Tel Aviv and other cities in the region for safety reasons. The situation has prompted concerns from Pope Francis, who urged all parties to prevent the conflict from spreading. Israel's ambassador to Germany predicts an imminent Iranian attack, and the US has warned that it will not tolerate attacks on its forces in the region. The crisis has sparked discussions about why Iran is expected to attack Israel, with Iran vowing revenge for the recent killings of Hamas leaders in Tehran and Hezbollah commanders in Beirut. The appointment of Sinwar as Hamas leader has received both congratulations from Hezbollah and pressure from the United States to negotiate a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas.

Iran urged to limit retaliation against Israel

Russian President Putin has reportedly urged Iran to avoid causing civilian casualties in any retaliation against Israel following the assassinations of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh and Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr. Russian Defense Minister Shoigu has warned that Iran's response could escalate tensions. Hezbollah leader Nasrallah vows retaliation and aims to keep Israel on edge, with the possibility of coordination among Hezbollah, Iran, Hamas, and Houthis.

Iran is also working to improve relations with Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt. The Arab world's hesitancy towards military action against Israel is deeply rooted in the traumatic defeats of the 1967 and 1973 wars. The US is working to de-escalate the conflict, with Secretary of State Blinken engaged in efforts around the clock. Israel declares readiness for both attack and defense. Israeli raids in the West Bank have resulted in the deaths of 12 Palestinians, and Lebanon's foreign minister seeks to prevent total war.
