Hamas says response to killing of Islamic Jihad commander will continue
Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum says that terror groups in the Gaza Strip will continue to retaliate to Israel’s targeted killing of Baha Abu al-Ata, who was a senior commander in Islamic Jihad’s military wing, but with “wisdom.”
“The response to the assassination will continue, but with wisdom and understanding and comprehension of the resistance’s ability to manage this battle,” Barhoum tells the Hamas-linked Al-Aqsa TV.
