Hamas, Islamic Jihad hail Jenin anti-occupation attack

Hamas and Islamic Jihad Movements on Friday evening hailed the anti-occupation car-ramming attack carried out at the entrance to Mevo Dotan settlement to the south of Jenin city in the northern West Bank. An Israeli officer and a soldier were killed, whereas three others were seriously injured.

The Hamas’s spokesman Hazem Qasem said, in a press statement, that the anti-occupation attack proves the continuation of resistance and al-Quds Intifada (uprising).

Islamic Jihad Movement praised the escalation of protests against the Israeli occupation and said that anti-occupation attacks are a legitimate right for the Palestinian people who are defending themselves, their land and their holy places.
