Iran considers the assassination of martyr Ismail Haniyeh to be one of its red lines that was crossed, "regardless of the details of the operation," indicating that it will handle the response accordingly, Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Tehran reported, citing an informed Iranian source.

That is why "Iran will respond in a way that crosses the red lines set by the Israeli occupation," the source informed source stated.

They also pointed out that "Iran will not yield to pressures and messages of de-escalation because any abandonment of retaliation will open the door to more Israeli aggressions."

Today, the Speaker of the Iranian Parliament, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, affirmed that his country "has not and will not leave any attack on its sovereignty unanswered," stressing that the Israeli occupation and the United States "will regret their actions and will be forced to change their calculations."

A response stronger than 'Operation True Promise'

Earlier, Kazem Gharibabadi, the Deputy Chief for International Affairs of the Iranian Judiciary, warned in an interview for Al Mayadeen that the Israeli occupation would face severe repercussions for its actions, such that "it would not dare to commit further acts of terrorism or violate Iran’s sovereignty."

Gharibabadi's remarks come in response to the Israeli assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the Political Bureau of Hamas, alongside one of his guards in Tehran, on July 31.

He emphasized that the response to the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, the head of Hamas' political bureau, would be "more decisive than Operation True Promise".

Gharibabadi described the Israeli action as "an act of terrorism that defies international resolutions," arguing that it reveals not the strength but the impotence of the Israeli entity.

He asserted that the killing of innocent civilians, including women and children in Gaza, demonstrates the defeat of the Israeli entity.
