Hamas spokesperson in Jerusalem Mohammed Hamada stated the following: 

We hail Palestinian residents of Jerusalem’s Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood for standing steadfast and resilient in the face of the Israeli occupation attempts to Judaise Jerusalem and forcefully displace the indigenous Palestinian population from the holy city.

By continuing its aggression and suppression against Palestinian Jerusalemites and activists in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood, the Israeli occupation is insisting on playing with fire. 

Refusing to give in and surrender, the Palestinian people will continue fighting Israeli schemes with all their might. The Palestinian resistance is ready to respond to the Israeli occupation aggression. 

The Israeli occupation has to realize this lesson and stop its assault on the Jerusalem neighborhoods of Silwan and Sheikh Jarrah.
