Iran and Israel's relationship significantly changed post-1979 Islamic Revolution, when Iran renounced agreements and adopted hostility towards Israel, previously an ally. Initially, Iran recognized Israel in 1948 and cooperated on military and agricultural fronts. However, the revolution led to Iran's anti-Israel rhetoric, driven by a desire to gain favor among Arab states. This culminated in military support for Hezbollah, transforming the Iranian-Israeli dynamic into one marked by enmity and conflict, as Iran sought to extend its influence in the region.
Israel and Iran were once allies, with Iran recognizing Israel in 1948 and Israel providing military and technical support to Iran until the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
After the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Iran severed ties with Israel, adopting a hostile stance fueled by rhetoric criticizing Israel's treatment of Palestinians and seeking to bolster its regional influence.
