Diplomats are trying to persuade Iran not to respond to the Israeli attack or to limit itself to symbolic actions.

Senior diplomats of the European Union and the United States held urgent talks in the Middle East to avoid a full-scale war in the region after the assassination of the head of the Politburo of the Palestinian Hamas movement, Ismail Haniyeh, in Tehran. The Financial Times reported this on Wednesday, July 31, citing sources.

In particular, the Deputy Chairman of EU Foreign Policy Enrique Mora held “important” negotiations in Tehran, while the White House National Security Council coordinator in charge of the Middle East and North Africa, Brett McGurk, was in Saudi Arabia .

The discussions centered on persuading Iran not to respond to the attack, which it blames on Israel, or to limit itself to symbolic actions, sources told the publication.

“Since last night, everyone is putting pressure on Tehran not to respond and to restrain itself,” a Western diplomat involved in the negotiation process told the publication.

Let us recall that last night one of the leaders of the Palestinian group Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, was killed in a shooting at his residence in the capital of Iran on the morning of July 31. Analysts on Iranian state television immediately blamed Israel for – attack. Israel itself has not yet commented on the information. Iran’s Supreme Religious Leader Ali Khamenei announced a response to Israel for the death of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran. The media later reported that Khamenei had ordered a direct attack on Israel.
