Hamdan: Cairo Court’s decision to ban Hamas an offense against Egypt’s history

Hamas leader Osama Hamdan said the Egyptian judiciary ruling to ban the movement’s activities in Egypt is a political decision par excellence.

Hamdan said in an interview on Saturday that the decision represents a coup against the historic position of the Egyptian people, who have always been alongside the Palestinian resistance in the face of Israel.

“The verdict presents Israel as a friend, while it shows the resistance as a terrorist organization”, the Hamas official added.

He pointed out that the decision was taken without listening to the movement, and was based on fabrications and lies.
