As to why Iran has not taken action yet, sources from the US intelligence community analyzed that Iran is likely waiting for the OIC to hold a special meeting.

Judging from the current situation, this meeting does have a significant impact on the situation in the Middle East.

There are two points worth noting.

On the one hand, Saudi Arabia broke its silence at this meeting and responded for the first time to the assassination of Haniyeh.

Saudi Deputy Foreign Minister Khuleiji said the assassination was a "blatant violation" of Iran's sovereignty and that Saudi Arabia firmly opposed such actions.

Although Saudi Arabia has not publicly supported Iran in launching any military action against Israel, such statements are actually similar to the content of Putin's message to Tehran.

The message said that Putin hoped that Iran would respond with restraint and advised Iran not to attack Israeli civilians. This sentence seems to focus on restraint, but in fact, the word "reaction" seems to better reflect Russia's attitude.
