Palestinian militant group Hamas would not have been able to launch its “unprecedented” attacks on Israel without having had Iranian support in recent years, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said Thursday.

“So far, we have no tangible evidence that Iran gave concrete and operational support to this cowardly attack,” Scholz said in an address to parliament.

“But it is clear to all of us that without Iranian support over the last few years, Hamas would not have been able to carry out these unprecedented attacks on Israeli territory.”
