Hamas says Israel’s anti-tunnel barrier won’t stop its ‘resistance’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleA Hamas spokesperson says Israel’s barrier against tunnels currently under construction along the border with the Gaza Strip won’t stop the group’s attacks, but adds that Hamas does not want a violent escalation at this time.
“The resistance in the Gaza Strip will continue to use all the tools at its disposal to defend the Palestinians from Israeli aggression,” Hazem Kassam says.
“Israel’s threats don’t frighten us, but we nevertheless aren’t seeking an escalation. We don’t fear a conflict. All Israel’s efforts won’t bring it security as long as it continues to occupy our land and besiege our nation,” Kassam tells the Turkish news agency Anadolu.
