West Bank observes comprehensive strike following Hamas official's assassination
A widespread strike is underway across the governorates of the West Bank today, as a mark of condemnation for the assassination of Saleh Al-Arouri, a senior official of the Palestinian group Hamas.
The strike also serves as a protest against the continuous actions of the occupation affecting the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
The National Liberation Movement "Fatah" and various national and Islamic forces jointly called for the strike, which has had a significant impact on various aspects of daily life. Universities, banks, and shops remained closed as a demonstration of solidarity and mourning.
The strike reflects the deep-seated tensions and grievances surrounding the ongoing conflict in the region, with the Palestinian community expressing their collective disapproval of the targeted killing of Saleh Al-Arouri and broader concerns about the actions of the occupation forces. (ILKHA)
