Hamas warns of endorsing Jerusalem as capital of Israel

Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, warned of the consequences of the US President Donald Trump’s decision to endorse Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

In a press statement on Saturday, Hamas said “That would constitute a blatant violation of the international law since Jerusalem is an occupied territory”. Hamas added that Trump’s expected resolution provides a kind of cover up for Israeli crimes of Judaization and expelling Palestinians out of the city.

Hamas called on the Palestinian poeple to confront the US decision and urged the youth to escalate al-Quds Intifada (uprising) so that this conspiracy would not pass.

The Movement asked Muslims, Arabs, and the free people of the world to shoulder their responsibilities and to work on halting and criminalizing this unfair resolution.
