Israeli Envoy to India Naor Gilon trained guns on Iran when asked about the possibility of the war expanding and seeing the involvement of more countries. He said, "The Arab nations, the moderate countries, know that jihadist Islamist extremism is a risk to them as much or more as it is a risk to us. The issue is not Arab states, it is a non-Arab state called Iran. It is very much connected to everything that happened. We know that Iran has been training, arming, and financing Hamas for years. Just three days ago, the Iranian Foreign Minister went to Beirut and met with Hezbollah, Hamas, and Islamic Jihad representatives."
