GAZA, (PIC)
Hamas Movement has called on the international community to fulfill its responsibilities and pressure Israel to stop its crimes and violations of all international treaties, and to hold it accountable for its violations and war crimes.
In a statement on Saturday, Hamas said that the Israeli military campaign in Jenin, which has now entered its third month, alongside its ongoing aggression in Tulkarem and northern West Bank areas, “reveals the occupation’s insistence on its brutal approach and malicious plans against the West Bank, in parallel with the ongoing genocide against our people in the Gaza Strip.”
Hamas emphasized that the continuation of the criminal Israeli aggression, along with arrests, abuses, and destruction of homes, facilities, and infrastructure, as well as ongoing campaigns of forced displacement affecting tens of thousands from the Jenin, Tulkarem, and Nur Shams refugee camps, “require that all components of our Palestinian people and their factions should unite and make every effort to confront this brutal aggression. Our people and our resistance are the guarantors of thwarting the occupation’s plans.”
Hamas called on the Palestinian masses in the West Bank for more resilience and steadfastness, to escalate resistance efforts and confront the terrorist occupation’s aggression. It affirmed that all “military pressure tactics will not break our people’s will but will only increase their determination and adherence to the option of resistance until they achieve their freedom and rights.”
Since the start of its destructive war on the Gaza Strip in October 2023, the Israeli occupation army and its settlers have escalated their attacks in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, resulting in the martyrdom of more than 937 Palestinians, approximately 7,000 injuries, and the arrest of 15,700, according to official Palestinian data.
