The Hamas Movement hailed the shooting operation carried out on Thursday morning south of Occupied Jerusalem, saying it is a natural response to the Israeli occupation’s massacres and crimes in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
Hamas said in a press statement, “Our people will continue resistance operations across Palestine until the Israeli occupation is terminated and Palestinians’ national rights are fully regained, most importantly their right to self-determination and the establishment of the State of Palestine with Jerusalem as its capital.”
Hamas called on Palestinian youths to escalate confrontations with Israeli occupation forces and Jewish settlers across the West Bank and Jerusalem.
Earlier on Thursday, an Israeli soldier was killed, and eight others were injured in a shooting operation carried out by three young men at a military checkpoint near Al-Zayim town, east of Occupied Jerusalem. The three young men were shot dead by Israeli security forces.
