Political activist Laura Loomer claims IDF soldiers showed her missiles with Russian writing found in kibbutzim hit during the October 7 attacks, though she was not allowed to photograph them. She notes that Russian officials hosted a Hamas delegation in Moscow on October 26, 2023—three weeks after the attacks—and questions why neither the US nor Israel publicly addresses this connection. Loomer also highlights that Putin was born on October 7, suggesting the date holds symbolic weight.
