Gaza, (The Palestine Information Centre)The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas has warned that any Israeli attack on the leaders of the Gaza-based movement will face a “strong” response.
Hamas made the remark in a press statement on Sunday after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened to assassinate Saleh al-Arouri, deputy head of the Hamas political bureau, and other resistance leaders in response to the growing retaliatory operations by Palestinians against the regime in the occupied West Bank.
The movement denounced Netanyahu’s threat as “empty remarks that will not intimidate the resistance.”
“Saleh and all of his brothers and our steadfast and steadfast Palestinian people, who presented a long convoy of martyrs, are continuing with determination and certainty in resisting the occupation until the restoration of all the legitimate rights of our people, on top of which is the freedom of Jerusalem [al-Quds] and the blessed al-Aqsa Mosque,” the statement said.
“The Zionist enemy, who is confused by the blows of the resistance, must be aware that any harm coming to any resistance leader would be responded to strongly with force and firmness,” it added.
