billboard of new Hamas leader Yahya Al-Sinwar hanging on a
building at Palestine Square in Tehran, Iran, 19 August 2024.
Tension remains high between Iran and Israel since late Hamas
leader Ismail Haniyeh was killed in Tehran on 31 July 2024, as
Iran's leader Ayatollah Khamenei vowed for a 'harsh punishment'
against Israel in retaliation over the killing of Haniyeh. The
US and EU administrations asked Iran not to attack Israel as
peace talks between Hamas and Israel are going on. EPA/ABEDIN
