Iranian Foreign Minister: Israel's Killing of Hamas Chief Haniya Was a 'Strategic Mistake'

Iran's foreign minister, Ali Bagheri, has condemned Israel's assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Hanija as a 'strategic mistake' and threatened retaliation. Bagheri accused the Israeli government of trying to escalate tensions and conflicts in other countries but claimed that they lacked the capability to wage war against Iran.

The killing of Hanija has led to increased fears of a larger war in the Middle East. In response, mediators, including the US, Egypt, and Qatar, have called for a resumption of ceasefire negotiations and the release of hostages.

They stressed the need to return to the negotiating table and finalize the details of the agreement. Israel has agreed to the talks, but the US has cautioned against expecting a quick resolution.

The conflict between Israel and Hamas has intensified, with ongoing Israeli military offensives in Gaza and targeted attacks on Hamas. The situation remains precarious, with the potential for further escalation and retaliation.

Mediators call on Israel and Hamas to resume ceasefire ... negotiations

Mediators from the US, Egypt, and Qatar have called on Israel and Hamas to resume negotiations on a ceasefire and the release of hostages in the Gaza Strip next week. The mediators stated that a framework agreement is already on the table and that the talks are necessary to address remaining gaps and begin implementing the agreement without further delay. The negotiations have been ongoing for months, focusing on a plan proposed by Israel and presented by US President Joe Biden in May. Israel has agreed to resume negotiations on August 15th. However, there are warnings that a swift agreement is unlikely, and Israel's government has been accused of delaying an agreement. The recent escalation of the conflict in the Middle East, including the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh and Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr, has added further complexity to the negotiations. It is crucial to reach an agreement on a ceasefire and the release of hostages to prevent further violence and ensure stability in the region.
