Hamas Official Lambasts US Over Favoritism Toward Israel in Escalating Gaza Tensions
A senior representative of the Palestinian Islamist group Hamas has criticized the United States for its partial stance towards Israel in the ongoing Gaza Strip conflict.
Saleh al-Arouri, Hamas’ deputy chief, expressed his discontent in a press statement, declaring, “The world knows the US’s biased stance, and we place no reliance on it.”
Al-Arouri’s remarks followed a phone call between US President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, where President Biden reiterated America’s unwavering support for Israel’s right to self-defense.
Furthermore, al-Arouri suggested that “the Israeli army’s incursion into Gaza presents the most favorable outcome for Palestinian militants in resolving this conflict with the enemy.”
Meanwhile, Israeli army spokesperson Daniel Hagari announced the mobilization of reserves, with 31 regular battalions stationed in the vicinity of the Gaza Strip and southern Israel.
Saturday at dawn, Hamas, the governing authority in Gaza, launched a sudden terrorist operation against Israel, firing thousands of rockets at Israeli cities.
