US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has called on all parties in the Middle East to avoid "escalatory actions". Fears over a wider conflict are growing, after Iran vowed revenge for the fatal strike on Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh in Iran. In Tehran, thousands gathered to mourn Haniyeh in a symbolic funeral procession. Hamas said Haniyeh will be buried in Doha. Protests have erupted across several territories -- including Pakistan, Türkiye, Jordan, the occupied West Bank and Lebanon -- in condemnation of the killing. Sarah Coates reports from Tel Aviv.
