Hezbollah and Hamas capitalize on baby’s death
Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Rivlin are not the only ones consoling the Dawabsha family.
According to a report in Ynet, Hamas deputy leader Ismail Haniyeh called relatives of the family on the phone offering their condolences and well wishes for the injured family.
Haniyeh expressed outrage at what happened and promised the relatives that Hamas will stand by the family.
Hezbollah also referred to the incident, and said that it “necessitates a move by the peoples of the Ummah and assistance to the Palestinians to fight the occupation.”
