Hamas: Jerusalem bombing is natural response to Israeli crimes
Hamas praises the attack on a bus in Jerusalem that wounded more than 20 people, but does not claim responsibility.
A statement on the group’s website says that “Hamas welcomes the Jerusalem operation, and considers it a natural reaction to Israeli crimes, especially field executions and the desecration of the Al-Aqsa Mosque.”
