Iran's Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces, Ali Abdollahi, stated on October 7 that the Hamas attack on Israel on that date in 2023 supposedly accelerated the "decline" of the Jewish state and altered the course of the confrontation. Abdollahi claimed the events of October 7 marked a shift for the "Axis of Resistance," a term Tehran uses for a network of Iran-backed groups including Hamas, from a defensive to an offensive strategy. He asserted these actions were for the "legitimate defense of the Palestinian people and their land." Iranian authorities regularly refer to Israel as the "Zionist regime." Abdollahi's statement coincided with the third anniversary of the attack, during which Israelis held memorial events, including a moment of silence at the sites targeted by Hamas. The article also references a previous report about U.S. Senator J.D. Vance's comments to Reuters, stating that Iran must significantly reduce its uranium enrichment capabilities, and that Washington requires concrete steps, not just future promises, to reach an agreement on its nuclear program.
