GAZA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) Hamas has applauded Hezbollah’s “major response” in retaliation for “the crime of assassinating the great resistance commander Sayyed Fuaad Shukr.”
In a statement on Sunday, Hamas said Hezbollah’s counterattack was a message to the Israeli occupation regime “that crimes against the Palestinian and Lebanese peoples will not pass without a response.”
“We emphasize that this strong and focused response, which struck deep inside the Zionist entity, is a slap in the face for the fascist occupation government,” Hamas said in a statement after Hezbollah said it launched a large-scale operation using rockets and drones against Israeli military targets.
Hamas also condemned the large-scale attack by Israeli warplanes on Lebanon as a “flagrant violation of all international conventions and norms.”
The Movement said that today’s aggression against Lebanon vindicated further that Israel “is a rogue entity that poses a real threat to the region and the world’s security and stability.”
It held the US administration fully responsible for the repercussions of Israel’s ongoing aggression and crimes in Palestine, Lebanon, Yemen and Iraq.
