Israel Defense Forces (IDF) international spokesman Jonathan Conricus argued on "Fox and Friends Weekend" on Sunday that none of the recent violence in the Middle East "would have been possible without Iranian knowledge, funding, expertise and hands on involvement on the ground."

"It’s very clear, Iranian fingerprints are all over the situation in terms of money, knowledge, personnel and energy spent," Conricus told host Pete Hegseth.

He added that "when the most important countries around the world are thinking about negotiating with Iran, people need to remember [that] the Iranians are the number one exporters of instability and terror and death and destruction in the Middle East and they should be addressed and held accountable as such."
