Hamas terrorists and other Iran-aligned militant groups with continue to be supplied with weapons by Kim Jong-un\u2019s North Korea following their surprise terror attack on Israel earlier this month, experts have warned.<\/p>\n

The attacks of October 7 have prompted \u201cintense scrutiny\u201d of the Palestinian militant group\u2019s links with the Hermit State, a report prepared by North Korea-focused think tank 38 North pointed out.<\/p>\n

One senior official from South Korea\u2019s Joint Chiefs of Staff claimed \u201cHamas is believed to be directly or indirectly linked to North Korea in various areas, such as the weapons trade, tactical guidance and training\u201d, the analysis pointed out.<\/p>\n

PyongYang rejected the accuusation that it armed Hamas as \u201ca groundless and false rumour\u201d and a conspiracy propagated by the US.<\/p>\n

However, 38 North\u2019s report, written by Samuel Ramani, continued: \u201cNorth Korea\u2019s denials also belied mounting contradictory evidence. Israel has reportedly captured a North Korean F-7 rocket-propelled grenade from Hamas\u2019s arsenal.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe F-7 is a shoulder-fired grenade used against armored vehicles and is another name for North Korea\u2019s RPG-7 launcher.<\/p>\n

\u201cA South Korean official alleges that North Korean Bang-122 artillery shells were found on the Israel-Gaza border and a Hamas-aligned Palestinian militant group possesses North Korean-made 122-mm multiple rocket launchers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Furthermore, Mr Ramani pointed out that North Korea had a \u201clong history of supplying arms to militant non-state actors in the Middle East\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued: \u201cSince the outbreak of war in the Gaza Strip, North Korean state media outlets have castigated Israel and whitewashed Hamas.<\/p>\n

On October 10, North Korea\u2019s party daily newspaper, Rodong Sinmun, stated that the international community believed \u201cIsrael\u2019s constant criminal acts against the Palestinian people\u201d caused the war, Mr Ramani pointed out.<\/p>\n
