Hamas threatens to ‘storm the border’ with Israel if truce not implemented
Fathi Hamad, a senior Hamas official, says that if Israel does not implement a de facto ceasefire agreement it reached with the terrorist group, Palestinians will storm the Gaza Strip’s border with the Jewish state.
Hamad, known for his heated rhetoric, makes the statement at a protest in the northern border region between Israel and Gaza.
“If the enemy does not return to its senses and does not implement the understandings, we will storm the border,” Hamad says.
