The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas condemned on Thursday the demolition of Palestinian detainee Mohammed Kabha’s house in the West Bank city of Jenin as an “act of terrorism.”

“This behaviour reflects the logic of gangsters adopted by the Israeli occupation,” Hamas Spokesperson Hazem Qasem said.

In a press statement, Qasem explained that home demolition is an “old and failure policy” used by the Israeli occupation as a collective punishment in bid to undermine the Palestinian struggle for freedom.
