Palestine Today reports that after a freeze of some months, Iran has resumed supporting Hamas.
The two parties were at odds over Hamas' support of the rebels in Syria.
The rapprochement came after a senior Hamas official visited Tehran recently.
Hamas spokesman Ahmad Yusuf admitted Iranian support - presumably monetary and military - is not at the levels it reached previously.
He stressed that both Iran and Hamas understand each others' positions on Syria but they have a common enemy in Israel.
When asked whether Hamas had contacts with the U.S. administration, Yusuf replied: "There had been both formal and informal communications previously, but those close to U.S. President Barack Obama are wary of these contacts, in case the U.S. administration would get in trouble with Congress or with Israel....[However,] the Americans gave the green light for the Europeans to open talks with us. Europeans are more aggressive in dealing with us."
