TL;DR

Army Radio (Galei Tzahal) reports it has obtained dramatic documents detailing the pre-October 7 coordination between Hamas and Hezbollah, according to Moriah Asraf and Doron Kadosh (N13 / Army Radio). The documents describe Hezbollah's assistance during Operation Guardian of the Walls, Hamas officials' persuasion efforts in a meeting with Hassan Nasrallah, and optimistic quotes from Yahya Sinwar about Iranian and Hezbollah readiness to form an alliance against Israel. The full report is airing now.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Army Radio (Galei Tzahal) broadcast this morning what it describes as a first publication: a set of documents exposing the coordination efforts between Hamas and Hezbollah prior to the October 7, 2023 attack. The report, presented by Moriah Asraf and Doron Kadosh (N13 / Army Radio), claims the documents include Hezbollah's assistance to Hamas during Operation Guardian of the Walls (May 2021), details of a meeting between senior Hamas officials and Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah in which the Hamas figures sought to persuade Hezbollah of the alliance's benefits, and quotes attributed to late Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar expressing confidence in Iranian and Hezbollah readiness to form a united front. The broadcast is ongoing; the full content of the documents and their provenance have not yet been independently verified. The Zioneer has previously reported extensively on Hezbollah's posture and on post-war investigations into the October 7 attack's planning, including allegations of foreign involvement (BACKGROUND items). This report adds a new evidentiary layer to the understanding of the pre-attack axis coordination. Further details are expected as the broadcast continues.
