Islamic Resistance Movement - Hamas:

▪We warn of the escalating war crimes committed by the occupation government and its army, and of the repercussions of its announcement of a large-scale military operation in Shuafat camp and the town of Anata, northeast of occupied Jerusalem, together with the ensuing total siege, closure of entrances, leveling of infrastructure, and widespread arrests among citizens.

▪Jerusalem, its towns and camps will remain wholly Palestinian, and the occupation’s attempts to isolate it, Judaize it and impose its control over it will shatter before the steadfastness of its people, their will and their firmness on their land. The occupation war machine will not succeed in pushing through its plans and settlement projects; our people will remain steadfast and attached to their land and rights, until the aggression is repelled and the occupation ends.

▪We call on countries around the world, officially and popularly, to take broad and effective action to pressure the occupation to stop its aggression, hold its leaders accountable for their crimes, and provide all forms of support and backing to our people in confronting the occupation’s escalating aggression.
