Hamas fighters likely fired North Korean weapons during their Oct. 7 assault on Israel, a militant video and weapons seized by Israel show, despite Pyongyang’s denials that it arms the militant group.

    Could be China arming Hamas with NK weapons via Iran. A destabilized Middle East while Eastern Europe is in turmoil only benefits China. Because it means that the US can’t allocate all their military funds into East Asia.
