American Families Sue Iran over Hamas Attack

Families of American victims of the Hamas-led terrorist attack on Oct. 7 and those killed fighting in Gaza sued Iran on Sunday, accusing it of supporting the single deadliest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust.

This was reported by "The New York Times".

The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Washington, details Iran’s funding of Hamas and its embrace of other terrorist organizations seeking to destroy Israel.

During the meeting, Yahya Sinwar, then the leader of the group in Gaza, requested an additional $7 million a month from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to fund the attack on Oct. 7, known as the “big project.”

The Times has independently reviewed a set of the documents that refer to the $7 million, including details about the way Hamas’s leadership works and the preparations that went into its attack.

The lawsuit also mentions the role of the Revolutionary Guards in coordinating between Hamas and Hezbollah, a regional ally, in preparation for the attack, which The Times has reported.

The groups named in the lawsuit — Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine — have all been designated foreign terrorist organizations by the United States.

Forty-six Americans, including children, were killed on Oct. 7. Hamas also took about 250 people hostage, including 12 Americans. Seven Americans remain in Gaza but three are presumed dead.

The lawsuit also includes Americans killed in combat in Gaza or northern Israel. More than 30 American-Israeli citizens have been killed while fighting for the Israel Defense Forces, a State Department official said.

Claimed victims of terrorist attacks led by Iran have repeatedly sued the country in American courts over the years. Iran never shows up to defend itself, and the plaintiffs often win default judgments.
