Israel was guilty of a “heinous crime” when it killed Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh earlier this year, writes Iran’s UN ambassador Amir Saeid Iravani in a letter to UN chief António Guterres.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz admitted on Monday that Israel was behind the attack in Tehran.

“This shameless admission marks the first time that the Israeli regime has openly acknowledged its responsibility for this heinous crime,” writes the Iranian diplomat.
