Hamas on Sunday decried the White House latest statements accusing the Movement of being responsible for the aggravating humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip.
Hamas said in a press statement that the Israeli occupation bears full responsibility for the crisis hitting the Gaza Strip as a result of the decade-long blockade which has been openly supported by the US in violation of all international laws.
The Movement went on to hold the successive US administrations responsible for the tragedies that have plagued the Palestinian people because of its incessant economic political and military support for the Israeli occupation.
The statement noted that the US administration’s accusations constitute a green light to Israel to continue its aggression against the Palestinian people.
It added that the US does not only help tighten the blockade on Gaza through its support for Israel but it also threatens all countries trying to provide any humanitarian assistance to the Palestinians living in the besieged territory in a blatant disregard for their basic rights.
Hamas called on Arab and Islamic countries to make every possible effort to lift the unjust siege on the Gazan people and put an end to their suffering which keeps worsening each new day.
