Highlights: Sami Abu Zuhri, a senior Hamas official, said this after reports of an Israeli drone attack on an Iranian military site. Hamas is part of the Iranian-led Axis of Resistance, along with Lebanese Hezbollah and groups in Syria and Iraq. Israel's "aggression" against Iran is an escalation against the region, he said. The Times of Israel reports it as an attack on a military site in the Iranian city of Qusayd, in the country's south. The Israeli military says the attack was in response to an Iranian threat to strike Israel's airbase in the Golan Heights. The U.S. State Department says it is "aware of the reports" and is working with Israel on a resolution to the issue. The White House says the Israeli attack was a response to a threat from Iran to strike the Israeli air base in the town of Gush Etzion, near the Syrian border.
