In a recent statement, Hamas minimized the significance of the IDF's operation targeting terror infrastructure in Tulkarm, describing it as part of the ongoing aggression against the West Bank.
Hamas asserts that the IDF operation 'will not impact the resolve of our people, who remain steadfast and committed to their struggle as the only means to eliminate the occupation.'
The group lauded the 'resilience and jihad of our people and the resistance organizations in the West Bank, particularly in Tulkarm,' as well as the 'heroes of the Al-Qassam Brigades and other resistance groups.' Hamas called on the residents of the West Bank to heighten their resistance and inflict damage on the occupation, declaring that the anger since the start of the Al-Aqsa Flood Campaign will continue to be a persistent challenge to the occupier. "We will ensure that the occupier and its settlers experience no security or stability, no matter the cost or sacrifices. This is jihad—victory or martyrdom in the path of Allah."
