Iran holds funeral for assassinated Hamas leader

Iran held a funeral Thursday for Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh, whose killing in Tehran has added to fears of a regional conflict.

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei attended the funeral proceedings along with Iran's new President Masoud Pezeshkian.

Haniyeh was in Tehran for Pezeshkian's swearing-in, and Hamas said Haniyeh will be buried Friday in Qatar where he was based.
