A document from a computer found inside one of the trucks the Hamas terrorist organization used during the massacre of October 7 showed that one of Hamas' military commanders asked Iran to provide scholarships to the terrorist organization's operatives to study engineering, physics, and technology at Iranian universities, CNN reported.
The computer and truck were found in southern Israel following the massacre
Israeli and former US intelligence officials stated that the document is further proof of Iran's cooperation with Hamas and efforts to enable Hamas to produce its own weaponry.
“This example is another piece in an elaborate puzzle of a deep infrastructure of building, supporting, financing and training terror proxies by the Iranian regime around the globe and specifically in the Gaza strip,” an Israeli official said.
On Sunday, the Washington Post reported that had prepared for a ‘second wave’ of assaults on October 7, hoping to inspire violence in Judea and Samaria and beyond.
Items found on the bodies of slain terrorists: maps, drawings, notes, weapons, and more found that they planned to continue on their murderous rampage way further than the initial attack on the Gaza surrounding communities.
Hamas prepared for the attack of October 7 for two years. Over 1,200 people were murdered in the attack, the worst terrorist attack in Israeli history and the deadliest massacre of the Jewish people since the Nazi Holocaust. In addition, about 240 people were taken to Gaza as hostages.
Following the unprovoked attack, Israel declared war against Hamas and launched a ground operation to remove Hamas from power in Gaza and to rescue the hostages.
Several weeks after the outbreak of the war, analysts are beginning to reveal details of Hamas’s broader plan – not just to kill and capture Israelis but to spark a conflagration that would sweep through the entire region and lead to a wider conflict that would scuttle attempts to broker peace agreements between Israel and Arab and Muslim states in the Middle East, particularly the normalization agreement with Saudi Arabia.
