In press remarks on Tuesday, Hamas spokesman Abdul-Latif al-Qanu described what happened last night in Sheikh Jarrah as a reflection of the israeli occupation’s barbarism and aggressive practices.

Spokesman Qanu affirmed that the zionist regime’s ongoing aggressive practices against the Sheikh Jarrah residents and its attempts to expel them from their homes “entail escalating the confrontation with the occupation and strengthening the steadfastness of the Jerusalemites there in order to foil its plans.”

Last night, zionist police forces assaulted local residents and activists in Sheikh Jarrah, arrested many of them, and raided homes. (ILKHA)
