Tel-Chai Nation

At least 6 dissidents from Iran visited Israel as part of a delegation:

Billed as the first Iranian delegation to Israel since the fall of the shah 42 years earlier, the group was accompanied by four former Trump administration officials, including Ellie Cohanim, former US deputy special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism at the US State Department. Cohanim, who was born in Tehran and escaped with her family shortly after the Iranian Revolution in 1979, called the visit "historic."

Delegation members "know that Hamas, which rained down these rockets on Israel, is an Iranian proxy, and they know that Hezbollah on the Lebanese border is an Iranian proxy," Cohanim told JNS. "They wanted to show the Israeli people, but also the world, that they support Israel in its right to a country and its right to self-defense, and they really just stand against the Iranian regime."

The mission was organized by the Institute for Voices of Liberty, a US-based nonprofit that seeks to "counter the false narratives propagated by the Islamic Republic and its apologists" and act as a voice for the "freedom-seeking people of Iran."

I get the feeling Naftali Bennett didn't exactly welcome this delegation, but that's okay. He wouldn't be very helpful at all, nor would the equally bad Yair Lapid. This delegation's visit in itself is impressive.
