Hamas spokesperson, Hazem Qassem, said that the news report published in Ha'aretz which revealed the involvement of Israeli colonists in murdering eleven Palestinians in West Bank last May is further evidence of the engagement of all the Israeli occupation components in the aggression against the Palestinian people. 

Qassem confirmed that besides stealing the Palestinian lands, the Zionist colonial settlers are the spearhead of the Zionist project; therefore, they must be expelled from our entire Palestinian land.
