Iran to hold funeral for Hamas chief Haniyeh

TEHRAN: Iran was set to hold funeral processions on Thursday for Hamas political chief Ismail Haniyeh ahead of his burial in Doha after he was killed in a strike in Tehran blamed on Israel.
The Islamic republic’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei will lead the prayers for Haniyeh, having earlier threatened a “harsh punishment” for his killing.
Haniyeh’s death was announced on Wednesday by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, who said he and his bodyguard were killed in a strike on their accommodation in the Iranian capital at 2:00 am (2230 GMT).
