Are the conflicts in Israel-Palestine & Iran related? Or are they two separate things? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

hi I'm kinda ignorant when it comes to current events related to politics, can you please tell me if the Israel Palestine conflict has any relation to the Iran thing or are they two separate things happening right now?

I saw this car with this message on his window and it occurred to me I have no idea what's going on in the world. I just hear things in the news and hardly comprehend them and ignore them. My definition of ignorant is IGNORing things I don't understand.

Yes, they're related. Iran was threatening to attack and even invade Israel soon after the genocide began. They've been supplying Hamas and Hezbollah for years. Israel thinks it has Hamas on the run and decided to start going after a bigger threat while they still had Trump in their back pocket.
