“The decisions made by the Palestinian Resistance are fiercely autonomous and unwaveringly aligned with the legitimate interests of the Palestinian people. We emphatically stand in unflinching support of Palestine; however, we are not involved in Palestine’s response, as it is taken solely by Palestine itself,” the statement reads.
According to the mission, reports alleging Iran’s involvement in the attack on Israel could be viewed as an attempt by the Zionist authorities “to justify their failure and attribute it to Iran’s intelligence power and operational planning.”
Earlier, the Wall Street Journal published an article alleging that Iran had helped Hamas plan the October 7 attack on Israel and green-lighted it at a meeting in Beirut on October 2.
Hamas Resistance movement launched the large-scale operation on Saturday with a heavy barrage of rockets in response to the Israeli regime’s desecration of al-Aqsa Mosque and increased settler violence.
Both sides report hundreds of dead and thousands of injured as a result of the escalation of the conflict.
Operation al-Aqsa Storm is the biggest operation launched by Palestinian groups against the occupying entity in years. It has so far led to the death of hundreds of Israeli settlers and troops while, according to unofficial estimates, approximately 750 Israeli soldiers and settlers have gone missing.
