The United States is liable for prosecution for the role it played in supporting and guiding "Israel", which conducted acts of terror and mischief, Iran's Judiciary said on Tuesday.

Judiciary spokesperson Asghar Jahangir made the remarks one week after the Israeli assassination of martyred Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, and that of senior Hezbollah commander, Martyr Fouad Shokor, in Beirut, Lebanon. 

According to the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC), Haniyeh's assassination was carried out by "Israel" and supported by the US administration. 

Jahangir said the assassinations of both Resistance leaders were carried out in "desperate and brutal" operations by the Israeli occupation, whose survival rests on "organized assassinations and great acts of mischief against oppressed people."

"The US’s role in supporting and leading this evil regime is undeniable, and it provides the ground for legal and criminal prosecution of the government [in Washington] in international bodies," he stressed, adding that Iran intends to employ all of its domestic and international capacities to respond to  Haniyeh's assassination.

Iran rejects calls to tone down Haniyeh's assassination response

Iran has rejected American and Arab efforts to tone down its response to the Israeli assassination of Hamas Political Bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, The Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday.

The WSJ cited people familiar with the talks as saying that Tehran informed Arab diplomats on Saturday that it is unconcerned if its response to the Israeli assassination leads to the outbreak of war.

According to the sources, the United States requested Europe and other allied governments to convey a message to Iran urging it to avoid escalation, warning that any major strike could provoke a response.

Washington also hinted that efforts by Iran’s new President Masoud Pezeshkian to enhance engagement with the West would stand a better chance if Tehran demonstrated restraint.

As part of its message to Iran, the US also claimed that it was urging "Israel" to de-escalate as well.

The Wall Street Journal pointed out that "Iran has refused to provide detailed warnings that would help mitigate the impact of any strike."
