Peres: Iran Creating Unrest in Middle East through Hizbullah and Hamas

Israeli President Shimon Peres accused on Tuesday Iran of seeking to control the Middle East through Hizbullah and Hamas.

He said in an address to the Arab and Muslim world on the occasion of the month of Ramadan: “Tehran does not want the establishment of a stable Middle East, but it wants to take control of it through stirring tensions through Hizbullah in Lebanon and Hamas in the Gaza Strip.”

Tehran is providing these two groups with thousands of missiles and “they are creating fear and despair in the hearts of the Lebanese and Palestinian people”, the Israeli president stated.
