The Hamas terror group praises the deadly shooting attack near the illegal outpost of Homesh in the northern West Bank, although the Islamist faction did not immediately take responsibility.
“Hamas blesses this heroic operation in Nablus against the occupation forces and the murderous settlers,” says Hamas spokesperson Hazim Qasim.
The terror attack left one Israeli dead. Two other Israelis were lightly wounded by shards of glass during the shooting. The Israeli army is deploying across the area in an attempt to nab the perpetrators.
“This operation proves yet again that our heroic people will continue their struggle until they expel the occupier,” Qasim adds.
