Asked in an Al Arabiya interview about Hamas’s relationship with Hezbollah and other Arab nations:

“Outside of Palestine, we are grateful to whoever is standing by us. Hezbollah in Lebanon. The Lebanese front is currently active, we are grateful for that, whether it is by the Lebanese, the Palestinians or anyone. Hezbollah has an active role there. Those clashes in South Lebanon are good, and support our cause, but the scope of the battle the title is ‘Al-Aqsa Flood’ and when such a heinous crime is perpetrated against Gaza greater things are needed but we should not single out Lebanon and Hezbollah, let’s focus on countries bordering Israel. The great Egypt has waged large wars. The Egyptians are boiling [with anger]. We salute the Egyptian people and want more. I demand a more powerful position by Egyptian leaders.”“Exclusive: ‘Israel will kill us, whether we resist or not,’ says former Hamas chief,” Al Arabiya, last updated October 21, 2023, https://english.alarabiya.net/News/middle-east/2023/10/19/-Israel-is-killing-us-whether-we-resist-or-not-says-former-Hamas-chief.
