HAMAS’ REPORTS
Hamas leader Abdel Hakim Hanini
The ramming operation in the occupied city of Jerusalem this morning is a new confirmation of the resistance’s resolve and its commitment to its commitment.
The timing and location of the operation have their own connotations, coinciding with the violations and settlement plans that the Blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque is being subjected to.
The recent developments in the West Bank and Jerusalem and the specific operations that took place are an indication of the extent of the anger and latent revolution among our people.
We call on the masses of the West Bank and Jerusalem to show greater solidarity and rise up against the occupation.
** Resistants target the occupation forces with explosive devices “elbows” during the ongoing storming of the town of Jalboun, east of Jenin

By God’s grace, our mujahideen were able to clash with the Zionist enemy forces penetrating the Balata camp.
