Hezbollah’s leader warned that the militant group's conflict with Israel has entered a “new phase.” He made the comments Thursday following the killing of a top Hezbollah commander in Beirut and Hamas' political chief in Tehran. Hassan Nasrallah spoke to a funeral ceremony for the commander, Fouad Shukur, who was killed in an Israeli strike in Beirut this week. In Tehran, Iran's supreme leader prayed over the body of Ismail Haniyeh, the Hamas leader. Iran has vowed revenge for the killing of Haniyeh in a blast believed to have been carried out by Israel. The killings have raised fears of a wider war.
