Al-Qassam Brigades expressed surprise and strong condemnation, in a press statement on Wednesday, regarding publishing a fabricated statement carrying the name of the Brigades by some of Egyptian media which includes a threat to the Egyptian army and a warning of military operations against it.

Al-Qassam Brigades emphasized that it is just responsible for positions, statements and data published on its official website.

The Brigades affirmed that the fabricated statement does not reflect the Brigades’ ethics and policies, adding that whoever is behind this statement does not want concord between the Egyptian and Palestinian people.

It is an attempt to tarnish the image of the Palestinian resistance which resists the common enemy of Egypt, Palestine and Arab and Islamic nations, the statement added.

Al-Qassam Brigades confirmed “its clear position of not entering into any side battles and not interfering in the affairs of Arab countries. The Brigades respect the sovereignty of countries, especially Egypt, and does not seek to execute any military actions outside of Palestine.”

The Brigades called on the Egyptian media “that deal with these suspicious statements to verify their accuracy, objectivity and professionalism, and to beware of publishing such lies that do not deceive anyone.
