He made the remarks in an address to reporters while commenting on his recent phone calls with his German, French and British counterparts, in which they discussed Israel's "terrorist action" of assassinating Haniyeh, the Iranian Students' News Agency reported.

Stressing Iran's right to punish Israel for assassinating Haniyeh, Araghchi said in the phone calls that Israel's "aggression" against Iran's national security and sovereignty would definitely not go unanswered, and that Tehran would give its response "precisely and in a calculated and managed way while considering all dimensions," according to the ISNA report.
