Iran is a major financial supporter of the PIJ. Following the Israeli and Egyptian squeeze on Hamas in early 2014, PIJ has seen its power steadily increase with the backing of funds from Iran. Its financial backing is believed to also come from Syria. The Islamic Jihad Movement has sent "its gratitude to the brothers in [[Hezbollah]], the Islamic resistance in South Lebanon. Particularly [[Hassan Nasrallah]], for their stance and support, be it financial, military or moral support".
