Hamas: Netanyahu’s remarks reflect his defeat

images_News_2014_07_29_abuzuhri_300_0Hamas Movement said that Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu’s remarks concerning the ongoing Israeli military operation in Gaza reflect Israel’s defeat before Palestinian resistance.

Spokesman for the Movement Sami Abu Zuhri said in a press statement on Monday evening that Netanyahu’s threats do not scare his movement nor the Palestinian people. The occupation will heavily pay the price for its crimes, he continued.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday that Israel must be ready for a “prolonged” military campaign in the Gaza Strip. “We must be prepared for a prolonged campaign in Gaza. Israeli citizens cannot live with the threat from rockets and from death tunnels,” he said.

“We will not end this operation without neutralizing the tunnels whose sole purpose is killing our citizens.”

Abu Zuhri pointed out that Palestinian resistance fighters have managed to kill ten Israeli soldiers after infiltrating into 1948 occupied territories in response to Eid’s massacre.

Palestinian Health Ministry said that 10 children were killed and 45 people were injured after bombing a children’s playground on the first day of Eid al-Fitr.

Abu Zuhri denied Israeli claims that Palestinian resistance were using hospitals in their operations, saying that such allegations aim to justify Israeli crimes and war crimes.
