In a statement on Thursday, Hamas spokesperson Fawzi Barhoum held the zionist occupation gangs fully responsible for the continued escalation in Gaza and the consequences of its persistence in targeting resistance sites.
"This escalation comes in the context of the israeli occupation’s ongoing foolishness and aggression against our Palestinian people and its persistence in exporting its internal crises to the Gaza Strip," spokesperson Barhoum said.
"The scale and timing of Israeli attacks reflect the confusion that the Israeli occupation is suffering from following its failure handle new rules of engagement imposed by al-Qassam Brigades. The intensity of Israeli bombing and attacks means that the Israeli occupation does not realise the consequences of going into this stage," Barhoum warned.
Bahroum concluded as follows: "The israeli occupation has to understand that Hamas, along with the Palestinian resistance factions, above all the al-Qassam Brigades, is able to respond to the israeli attacks and will not abandon its duty and responsibility of defending the Palestinian people, nor will it accept new rules of engagement imposed by the Israeli occupation at any cost."
Zionists' warplanes at dawn Thursday waged several aerial attacks on different areas of Gaza, with no reported casualties. (ILKHA)
