‘Iran helped Hamas plot devastating attack on Israel’

The operation, involving air, land, and sea incursions, was the most significant breach of Israel’s borders since the 1973 Yom Kippur War. Meetings in Beirut saw Iranian officers and representatives from Hamas and Hezbollah refining the attack plans. The goal of the attack was to escalate warfare against Israel on multiple fronts and disrupt US-brokered negotiations between Saudi Arabia and Israel.
