The Hamas Movement has held the Israeli occupation state fully responsible for the consequences of its persistence in shedding the blood of Palestinian citizens participating in the March of Return rallies in the Gaza Strip.
“The deliberate targeting of peaceful protesters by the occupation forces confirms the bloodthirsty nature of Israeli leaders whose terrorism has not ceased since the arrival of Zionist gangs in the land of Palestine” Hamas spokesman Hazem Qasem stated on Friday.
“The [Israeli] occupation should be classified as a terrorist state and its leaders should be prosecuted as war criminals” Qasem said.
“Such [Israeli] crimes will never stop our people’s struggle to extract their freedom regain their land and holy sites and exercise their right to live with dignity and break the siege being imposed on them” he added.
Two Palestinian protesters under age 18 were shot dead and dozens were injured on Friday when Israeli soldiers violently attacked March of Return rallies in the east of Gaza.
