Hamas welcomes Iran attack on Israel: ‘A natural right and a deserved response’

Hamas defends Iran’s attack on Israel involving a large wave of around 300 attack drones and missiles.

“We in Hamas regard the military operation conducted by the Islamic Republic of Iran a natural right and a deserved response on the crime of targeting the Iranian consulate in Damascus and the assassination of several leaders of the Revolutionary Guards,” the terror group says in a statement.

Tehran’s attacks were launched after an alleged Israeli airstrike on an Iranian consulate building in the Syrian capital of Damascus on April 1, which killed several Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commanders, including two generals.
