Iran security officials allegedly had been helping Hamas plan its attacks against Israel for weeks, according to senior members of Hamas and Hezbollah.
Iran reportedly helped terrorist organization Hamas plan its surprise attack on Israel, according to senior members of Hamas and Hezbollah.
The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday that Iranian security officials approved Hamas‘ plan to attack Israel during a meeting in Beirut last Monday. Hamas and Hezbollah leaders said Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps worked with Hamas since August on air, land and sea attack plans.
A European official who works as adviser to the Syrian government corroborated the Hamas and Hezbollah leaders‘ claims, according to the Wall Street Journal, though U.S. officials say they have not seen evidence of Iran’s involvement in the attacks.
„We have not yet seen evidence that Iran directed or was behind this particular attack, but there is certainly a long relationship,“ Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on CNN Sunday.
