Palestinian factions called for a general strike and marches to protest the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in an air strike in Tehran.

“The national and Islamic factions in Palestine announce a comprehensive strike and anger marches to (protest) the assassination of the great national leader Ismail Haniyeh, which came in the framework of Zionist state terrorism and its war of extermination,” the Palestinian factions in the West Bank say a joint statement.
