This is the best summary I could come up with:
The October 7 massacre in southern Israel was a response to the 2020 assassination of Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps commander Qassem Soleimani, according to Al Jazeera citing an IRGC statement on Wednesday morning.
"Hamas denies the validity of the remarks given by the spokesperson of the Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Brigadier General Ramadan Sharif, regarding the operation of the Flood of al-Aqsa and its motives.
“Undoubtedly, the usurper and savage Zionist regime will pay for this crime,” Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi said in a statement read on state TV.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry released a statement on Monday evening, warning that Tehran “reserves the right to respond at the appropriate time and place to the assassination” of Mousavi.
Tehran added that the suspected assassination “is a sinful and cowardly act and a sign of the terrorist nature of the Zionist regime.”
Hezbollah released a statement on Monday night mourning the death of the IRGC official, whom the Lebanese terrorist organization called “one of the best brothers who worked to support the Islamic resistance in Lebanon for decades.”
