How Hamas, Hizbullah and Iran Carefully Planned an Unprecedented Offensive in Israel
(L'Orient Today-Lebanon) Mounir Rabih - Hamas' Saturday offensive in Israel was months in planning in the Lebanese capital, L'Orient-Le Jour has learned from several sources within the "axis of resistance" (i.e., the Iranian Quds Brigades, Hizbullah, Hamas and Islamic Jihad). Sources said a series of meetings took place between Hizbullah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and Iranian military officials, including Ismail Qaani, commander of the Quds Brigades of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, to prepare an operation of this kind. The operation was prepared in a joint Hamas-Hizbullah-Iran military operations room in Beirut over several months.
