Comprehensive resistance with all of its forms particularly armed struggle is the practical and true response to crimes by the Israeli occupation and its settlers the statement affirmed.
“These rogue groups who have shed Palestinian blood desecrated holy sites attacked Palestinian homes and targeted women on the streets will pay the price for their assaults and will be kicked out of Palestine by the Palestinian resistance” the resistance group warned.
