Al Mayadeen news site quotes an Iranian source as saying that the missile used to kill Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in a strike on his residence in Tehran was fired from another country, Paralel.Az reports citing The Times of Israel.

The source says that the missile was not fired from within Iran.

Recall that the head of the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, was assassinated in Tehran along with one of his bodyguards, Iran's Revolutionary Guards said Wednesday.

Hamas announced that Haniyeh was killed in an Israeli raid on his residence in Tehran.

Haniyeh was in Tehran to attend Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian's swear-in ceremony on Tuesday.
