After an IAF strike in Khan Yunis aimed at Hamas military leader Mohammed Deif, the terror group urged residents of "the West Bank, the Arab and Islamic nation, and free people of the world" to continue acts of solidarity with Gaza until the end of "the aggression and mass destruction."
"We call for a general alertness of all the resistance battalions, to support Gaza, and out of loyalty to the blood of the martyrs," Hamas stated.
Hamas further added: "We urge the Palestinian public in the West Bank and Jerusalem to engage in mass protests to confront the criminal Zionist occupation and its terrorist settlers. We call for an escalation of clashes to defend our land, sacred places, and our right to freedom and independence."
"We call on the members of the Arab and Islamic nation, to free people in the world, and to those with a living conscious, who support the justice of our matter, to continue their mass activities and to escalate their actions of identification with our Palestinian nation until the cessation of the aggression and mass destruction of the children and helpless civilians in the Gaza Strip," the terror group concluded.
