The fallout from the assassination of Hamas's Political Bureau Chief Ismail Haniyeh in the Iranian capital Tehran continues with Israeli fingerprints all over it.

His killing came a day after Israel murdered a commander of the Lebanese resistance group Hezbollah in the southern suburbs of the capital Beirut.

Both Iran and Hezbollah have promised a harsh response.

Tehran has also said the US bears responsibility for supporting Israel.

The Americans say a broader war in the Middle East is not inevitable but reaffirmed US support for the Israeli regime.

To many, the recent killings raise the specter of an all-out war in the Middle East. But how will Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas respond? And what does all that mean for the ongoing US-Israeli genocidal war on Gaza?

And, UK foreign secretary David Lammy is on a surprise visit to Lebanon purportedly aiming to de-escalate the growing regional tensions.
