In a statement, Hamas has condemned the latest Israeli settler attacks in the occupied West Bank towns of Jinsafut and Funduq and called for an “escalation of resistance in all its forms” to counter the violence.
“The escalation of settler terrorism underscores the urgent need for our heroic people across all governorates of the West Bank to rise in a sweeping wave of anger to deter the settlers and repel their terrorist attacks,” said the group.
The settler attacks, in concert with Israeli military campaigns, Hamas said, will not “succeed in pushing our people to give up their land and rights”.
Rather, it will lead to “further steadfastness and defiance”.
