Wagner PMC militants were preparing Hamas for an attack on Israel - CNS

Some of the Wagner PMC militants who were sent from Belarus to Africa were preparing Hamas terrorists for the invasion of Israel.

This was reported by the press service of the National Resistance Center.

In particular, the Russian mercenaries shared their combat experience with the Palestinians, which concerned the assault and the use of small drones to drop explosive material.

"The key areas of training for Hamas militants were assault training and the use of small unmanned aerial vehicles to drop explosive material. Only the Russians, among Hamas' allies, have experience in using drones with mechanisms for dropping explosives on enemy equipment. It was the Wagner drones that were handed over to Hamas militants during exercises in Africa," the CNS reports, citing sources in the Belarusian underground.

The National Resistance Center expressed gratitude to the Belarusian underground for the information about the enemy.

Israeli Defense Forces officer and military analyst Yigal Levin emphasized that Hamas is not "bums in slippers" and their capabilities should not be underestimated. He recalled that this terrorist group, like Islamic Jihad or Hezbollah, is an ally of Iran, which provides militants with weapons and prepares them for such operations.

According to The Wall Street Journal, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) was involved in planning the attack.

Meanwhile, Tehran denies any involvement in the recent events, but continues to justify Palestinian terrorists.

Background. As reported, Hamas has been deliberately deceiving Israel about its intentions for several years, lulling its vigilance – the attack was planned in the utmost secrecy, and many in the militant leadership did not know about it.
