Hamas statement, April 13, 2023
Body
“Hamas calls on the Palestinian residents of the West Bank and the 1948 occupied territories to participate in tomorrow’s Friday prayers to express solidarity with the Al-Aqsa and protest against continued Israeli crimes and Judaization plans.
“We also salute the steadfast Palestinian people who are prepared to defend the Muslims’ holy compound at any cost.”
Fact:
On October 7, 2023, Hamas invaded southern Israel where, in the space of eight hours, hundreds of armed terrorists perpetrated mass crimes of brutality, rape, and torture against men, women and children. In the biggest attack on Jewish life in a single day since the Holocaust, 1,200 were killed, and 251 were taken hostage into Gaza—where 101 remain. One year on, antisemitic incidents have increased by record numbers.
