(Jerusalem Post) Tzvi Joffre - Hamza Abu Shanab, a Gaza-based political analyst, detailed Iran's long history of support for Hamas in Al-Resalah on Monday. He said Iran provides a variety of combat equipment and missiles to the Gazan factions, while also training dozens of "resistance fighters in several combat specialties." He highlighted Iran's monetary support for Hamas' Qassem Brigades, and added that Iran provides financial support for the development of missiles and tunnels.
