Iran's president on Friday delivered an unprecedented speech to an annual pro-Palestinian rally in the Gaza Strip -- a display of Iran's importance to the Hamas militant group that rules the territory.
Raisi's speech was seen as part of efforts to mend a rift between Hamas and its longtime patron, Iran, over the devastating civil war in Syria. After the raid, in which hundreds of Palestinians were detained and dozens hurt, Palestinian militants fired rockets from Gaza, Lebanon and Syria toward Israel.
Although Hamas is a Sunni Muslim group, it has a militant wing that has long nurtured close ties with Iran, a source of funding and a Shiite powerhouse. Hamas and Iran are brought together by a shared enmity toward Israel.
