Meshaal: Hamas' West Bank resistance will continue
Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal told Al-Monitor in an interview that Hamas will continue to develop resistance in the West Bank against the Israeli occupation.
Hamas is committed to empowering popular resistance in the West Bank and Jerusalem against the Israeli occupation, Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal told Al-Monitor in an interview.
“Hamas will not stop building a resistance movement in the West Bank,” the Hamas leader said, adding that its work would continue despite security coordination against its activities between Israel and the Palestinian Authority (PA).
Hamas has been accused by both Israeli and PA officials of playing a hand in inciting unrest in Jerusalem in past months.
Meshaal warned that the Israeli elections scheduled for March 2015 “are a source of real danger,” saying that Israel might seek to embark on military escalation against Gaza in the run-up to the elections.
