So Palestinians are Hamas?
Why is Iran not helping Fatah?
Their support of Hamas is on ideological grounds. Similarly to Qatar’s reason for funding Hamas. Israel is holy waqf land that belongs to Muslims and should be cleansed from Jews.
Russia is also helping them out with weapons.

Even when Egypt had sovereignty over Gaza they made sure to prevent Palestinians from going to Egypt.

Tunnels from Lebanon… to Gaza…? Where’d you read that?
Hezbollah begun bombing Israel in support of Hamas. They’re also funded by Iran (much more than Hamas though).
Meanwhile Palestinians live in camps in Lebanon. Some of those walled and surrounded by watchtowers.
They have less rights there than anyone else (including refugees and migrant workers), despite living there for 3 generations at this point.

Turkey under Erdogan has been mostly hosting Hamas leaders while bombing Kurds in Syria.

I don’t think much needs to be said about Assad.

The only country in the area which actually helped Palestinians was Jordan. Although that also changed for a while after Black September.

Most of UNRWA’s funding over the years has come from the EU and USA.
