The recent assassination of a Hezbollah leader in Lebanon and a Hamas leader in Iran have amplified concerns of a wider war in the Middle East. Israel took responsibility for killing the Hezbollah leader in Beirut but hasn’t publicly claimed responsibility for the killing of the Hamas leader in Tehran.
