The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas hailed Palestinian protests organised on Friday in occupied Palestine against Israeli racism, Hamas Spokesman Hazem Qasem said.

Palestinians in occupied Palestine, mainly Umm al-Fahm took to the streets to express their rejection of the Israeli occupation’s racist policies and horrible discrimination against them.

Thousands of protesters raised the flag of Palestine to communicate a clear message to the occupation that they belong to Palestine, not to the “Israel.”

Hamas expressed its absolute support to the Palestinians living across occupied Palestine and hailed their insistence to reiterate their real identity as Palestinians, not Israeli citizens.
