Israeli-American journalist Emily Schafer said many Iranians across the world support Israel despite Iran celebrating Hamas's attack on the Jewish state.
Many people in Iran and the Iranian diaspora are standing up in support of Israel, despite the Islamic Republic's praise of the Hamas-led terror attack on Israelis, an activist and journalist said. 'It's just been incredible to see that these people who have been told that they're our enemies are, in fact, not at all,' Emily Schrader, an Israeli-American journalist, told Fox News Digital. 'They're our greatest defenders and their greatest allies.
Iran is a known backer of Hamas and praised the attacks on Israel. The State Department has stated in the past that Iran provides some $100 million a year to Palestinian armed groups, including Hamas and Islamic Jihad. Since the initial attack, Schrader said she has received many condolences from Iranians across the world, including in Iran. 'It's been really, really moving to see how much the Iranian community, even inside of Iran, is supporting Israel,' she said.
