Fears of wider war after assassinations, Israel stabbings | DW News

Fears are growing of a wider conflict in the Middle East. Jordan's foreign minister is to hold talks in Iran amid increasing tensions in the region. Tehran has been readying its response to the killing of the political leader of Hamas - a group considered a terrorist organization by many countries. Early on Sunday, the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah fired dozens of rockets into Israel in response to recent Israeli airstrikes.
And in Israel, two people have been killed and two others hurt in a stabbing attack. Police say a suspect, who they described as a resident of the West Bank, was shot and killed by responding officers. The attack occurred in Holon, a city near Tel Aviv. A police statement called it a terrorist incident.
