With a bang, Iran blew up and the Hamas leader was killed. All forces are eyeing Israel, and the "all-out siege" has escalated again.
Outburst! Another "shocking" incident occurred.
Iran Ismail · Chania, the political leader of the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), and one of his bodyguards were killed in an Israel airstrike after attending the inauguration of the new president Iran returning to their Iran residence after an official statement said.
I have to say that Israel is really anxious this time.

As for why the hurry? Clearly related to the current situation.
Negotiations between Hamas and Israel have stalled for months, with each side accusing each other of obstructing a deal.
Hamas, for example, expressed its displeasure through a statement claiming that after the mediators of United States, Egypt and Qatar negotiated with Israel Italy Rome, Netanyahu's government resorted to delaying tactics and evaded any substantive agreement by setting new conditions and demands.
In response, the Israel Prime Minister's Office refuted Hamas's accusations, arguing that Hamas itself was obstructing the agreement by putting forward 29 changes in the negotiations. The Israel side also stressed its insistence on the terms of negotiations, including the release of as many detainees as possible, and called for continued control of the Philadelphia corridor on the border between the Gaza Strip and Egypt.
However, senior Hamas member Izat · Rashik denied Israel's claims, insisted that Hamas had not put forward new conditions, and stressed that Israel had put forward "impossible" conditions on how to return displaced Palestinians to their homes, and refused to withdraw its troops from the Rafah crossing and the border with Egypt, as well as to release long-held Palestinians.

Seeing that the ceasefire agreement was not working, Hamas turned its attention to Fatah.
Chinanews reported that 14 different Palestinian factions gathered together and signed the "Beijing Declaration on Ending Separatism and Strengthening Palestinian National Unity" in Beijing.
This incident undoubtedly marks an important step towards intra-Palestinian reconciliation.
The division of Palestine has long been one of the sources of instability in the Middle East. Fatah's leader, the current Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, enjoys some authority, but his influence is still limited to the West Bank of the Jordan River.
As for the Gaza Strip, it is controlled by Hamas, so the contradictions and conflicts between the two factions have long hindered the unity and development of Palestine.
Looking back, there were not many people in the Gaza Strip who supported Hamas before 1989, but in 1993 Fatah reconciled with Israel and signed the "Oslo Accords", which made many Palestinians believe that although the United States has made efforts to sign the agreement, it is obviously more biased towards Israel, especially the behavior of "encroaching" on Palestinian territory, which has not been restrained at all.
As a result, Hamas, which advocates continued confrontation with Israel, has received further support as the second largest Palestinian organization.
In 2006, Hamas won the Palestinian election, but was opposed by United States and Israel, and Hamas eventually expelled Fatah from the Gaza Strip in a fit of rage, and relations between the two sides were nearly broken.
In fact, the biggest obstacle to reconciliation between the two sides is, in the final analysis, the United States and Israel. I just didn't expect that now, under the mediation of China, good news finally came from both sides. This is obviously the last thing the United States and Israel want to see, and at this point, the assassination of Haniyeh has become a natural thing for Israel.

However, Israel's move has made the whole thing bigger.
First, the assassination of the Hamas leader by Israel is likely to anger Hamas, triggering a series of more violent retaliations.
Second, to further complicate matters, the Israel attack took place in the Iranian capital. And Iran is one of Hamas's main supporters. Such actions are not only a provocation against Hamas, but also a flagrant violation of Iran's sovereignty.
Therefore, how Iran responds, as an important country in the Middle East, will be crucial. It is not even ruled out that Iran may resort to diplomatic protests and military retaliation.
Moreover, the current conflict between Lebanon and Israel is intensifying, and the President of Turkey has just issued the "strongest warning", threatening Israel to send troops at any time.
It can be seen that Israel is already under the situation of "siege from all sides", and has been targeted by all forces, and now it is shooting to kill important Hamas figures, and the final consequences will be unpredictable.
