On August 6, 2022, the London-based Iranian TV channel Iran International posted to its YouTube channel a report about Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) leader Ziyad Nakhalah’s visit to Tehran during the recent conflict between PIJ in Gaza and Israel. According to the report, IRGC Qods Force Commander General Esmail Qaani has confirmed that attacks against Israel are being carried out under Iranian guidance, and IRGC Commander-in-Chief Hossein Salami has pledged that Iran will exhaust all means in supporting the Palestinian resistance.

Narrator: "The recent escalation of the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians [began] as the leader of a Palestinian militia visits Tehran.  

[...]

"As Israel's military fighter jets initiated Operation Breaking Dawn, the top officials of the Islamic Republic [of Iran] were hosting Ziyad Nakhalah, Sec.-Gen. of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. IRGC Qods Force Commander Esmail Qaani has confirmed that at least 15 operations against Israel are carried out every day under the guidance of the Islamic Republic [of Iran]. Likewise, IRGC Commander-in-Chief Hossein Salami has stated, following his meeting with Nakhalah, that the Islamic Republic will exhaust all means to support the Palestinian militias, as it always does."
