Hamas mourns the killings of Mohammed Ali al-Naem, who was shot dead in a heinous Israeli crime in Gaza, Salim Ahmad Salim and Ziad Ahmad Mansour, who were killed in the Israeli bombardment in Damascus, wishing a fast and full recovery for the wounded. 

These appalling crimes come as part of the declared Israeli war and ongoing aggression against the Palestinian people and the whole region.

Hamas restates the necessity for Palestinian resistance movements to unite against the occupation.

All of these atrocities and violations will make the Palestinian people and resistance more insistent and determined to continue their freedom struggle against the occupation and to repulse all forms of aggression, given that they the Palestinian people have a legitimate right to defend themselves and restore their rights.

The Palestinian people will always be ready and united while sticking to such right as along as the occupation and aggression continue.
