“As we mourn our fighters who were assassinated in a coward israeli assassination, we affirm that the Israeli assassination policy will never provide security or legitimacy to the occupation,” the Movement said, vowing to continue the struggle until liberation.

“Such crimes will only strengthen our people's will and determination in defense of our land and holy sites,” Hamas added.

Earlier Saturday, the zionist occupation forces (ZOF) killed three Palestinians after opening fire at their vehicle at Araba junction, south of Jenin in the West Bank.

Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad, mourned the martyrs in a statement issued today, saying that they were members of the group.

The statement identified the martyrs as: Saeb Abhera, 30, Khalil Tawalbeh, 24, and Saif Abu Libdeh, 25. (ILKHA)
