Large crowds of Iranians are expected to attend a symbolic funeral procession of assassinated Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh in the Iranian capital of Tehran.

Haniyeh was assassinated early on Wednesday morning, an attack that drew threats of revenge on Israel and fueled further concern that the conflict in Gaza was turning into a wider Middle East war.
