Iran Press/Asia: "This [assassination] shows once again that the government of [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu is not seeking peace. This attack is also aimed at extending the Gaza war to the region. Unless the international community takes measures to stop Israel, our region will face much more serious conflicts," the statement reads.
Turkey will "continue to support the just cause of the Palestinian people," the ministry added.
Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh was reportedly killed during an Israeli raid on his residence in Tehran following his attendance at the swearing-in ceremony of Iranian President-elect Masoud Pezeshkian.
