Father of slain IDF observer says October 7 terrorists were heard speaking Farsi- report

Eyal Eshel, father of slain IDF observer Roni Eshel, told KAN News that some October 7 terrorists spoke Farsi, based on witness testimony. He extrapolated that Iran gathered intelligence on Gaza border towns. The information came from private interviews, not the IDF.

Eyal Eshel, father of Roni Eshel, an IDF observer murdered at the Nahal Oz base on October 7, told Israel's KAN News on Wednesday that some of the terrorists who invaded Israel on October 7 were speaking Farsi. The claim, he said, was uncovered recently and is based on witness testimony. Eshel extrapolated that Iran also gathered intelligence on the Israeli Gaza border area towns before October 7. He noted that this information came from privately collected witness interviews, rather than the IDF. Eshel said he is on a mission his daughter gave him to make the country better, and that children growing up today deserve a different reality.
