Senior Hamas official Osama Hamdan has stressed the need for an end to Israel’s aggression against the Gaza Strip and Lebanon in order for the resistance in Palestine and Lebanon to stop their operations.
“It’s not the green light from America that is needed to stop the aggression, but rather Israel’s green light,” Hamdan told Al Jazeera satellite channel on Wednesday.
Hamdan accused the US administration and the Europeans of obstructing the international position that supports Gaza and protecting the Israeli occupation regime.
“The American side is fully aware of the resistance’s demands in Palestine and Lebanon, which are to end [Israel’s] aggression and occupation, and knows that the failure to stop the aggression against Gaza has provided Netanyahu with an opportunity to attack Lebanon,” Osama said.
“The resistance does not want to see the aggression against Gaza or our people in Lebanon linger on for a long time, but the occupation regime and its supporters must realize that no matter how long it takes, the resistance will never surrender,” the Hamas official underlined.
Hamdan also paid tribute to the Lebanese people and their resistance that “has stood with Gaza.”
“The enemy seeks to create a division between the resistance in Palestine and Lebanon and isolate them from each other, but this will not happen,” he said.
“Our brothers in the resistance fronts in Lebanon, Yemen and Iraq are fully alert to the enemy’s goals and intents,” he added.
