Iranian state television on Monday for the first time ever aired a program with Hebrew subtitles, according to the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting outlet.

“Toward the Horizon of Palestine,” which began airing on IRIB‘s Ofogh channel in the days after the Hamas massacre in southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, included Hebrew subtitles for the first time on Monday evening.

After Tehran “realized that ‘Toward the Horizon of Palestine’ is being monitored in the occupied territories, starting last night, we began broadcasting the news in Hebrew,” said host Hossein Hosseini.

IRIB said the show provides “detailed analysis of the resistance front’s developments and to answer audience questions about Palestine and the Axis of Resistance,” which comprises Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, the Houthi rebels in Yemen, and other Iranian-backed regional terror groups.

The Israeli Air Force struck the IRIB‘s Tehran headquarters during the 12-day war with the Islamic Republic in June. According to the Israeli military, the target of the strike was a communications hub used for military purposes.

The building was used by the regime “under the guise of civilian activity, covering up the military use of the center’s infrastructure and assets,” it said, adding that the attack “directly harmed the military capabilities of the Iranian Armed Forces.”

In November 2022, the U.S. imposed sanctions on the IRIB and several individuals associated with the broadcaster for their involvement in the Iranian government’s censorship activities. IRIB forced and broadcast hundreds of confessions from people detained by the Islamic regime.
