Report: Only Gaza truce would hold Iran back from anti-Israel response
Only a ceasefire deal in Gaza stemming from hoped-for talks this week would hold Iran back from retaliation against Israel for the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh on its soil, media reports quoted three senior Iranian officials as saying.
One of the sources, a senior Iranian security official, said Iran, along with allies such as Hezbollah, would launch a direct attack if the Gaza talks fail or it perceives Israel is dragging out negotiations.
The sources did not say how long Iran would allow for talks to progress before responding.
