Hamas 'blesses' operation in Tel Aviv

Hamas blesses the martyrdom operation which targeted Tal Arabee' (Tel Aviv) and affirms that this heroic operation is a natural reaction to the massacre of the Dalu family and the targeting of civilians , women and children, in Gaza. We refuse any western condemnation of this heroic attack because those who stayed quiet while the Dalu massacre took place and the other killings of Palestinian civilians has no right to speak up today when the resistance is taking revenge for those civilian Palestinians.

–

Hamas has never said it would stop martyrdom attacks (suicide attacks), we are for the continuation of the martyrdom attacks, in the midst of the continued targeting of civilians from the Palestinian population by the occupation."
