Iran and its allies will plan to take revenge on Israel for the killing of the Hamas leader during the meeting, media reports.

Senior Iranian officials will meet today, Aug. 1, with representatives from regional allies Lebanon, Iraq and Yemen to discuss possible retaliation against Israel following the killing of a Hamas leader in Tehran, five sources said.

The region faces the threat of a widening conflict between Israel, Iran and its backers following the killing of Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran on July 31 and a senior Hezbollah commander in an Israeli strike on the outskirts of the Lebanese capital Beirut on July 30.

The meeting will be attended by representatives of Iran's Palestinian allies Hamas and Islamic Jihad, as well as Yemen's Tehran-backed Houthi movement, Lebanon's Hezbollah and Iraqi resistance groups, according to the sources.
