Hamas spokesperson Abdul Latif al-Qanoua said that the colonial settlers’ continued incursions into the Al-Aqsa Mosque and setting Palestinian homes and vehicles on fire near the occupied West Bank city of Nablus is a serious escalation of their crimes and terrorism.

Al-Qanoua added that the Israeli occupation bears responsibility for the colonial settlers' crimes and violations against the Palestinian people and holy places.

The Hamas spokesperson reiterated that such violations come before the announcement of the new fascist Israeli government that that gives them the cover to continue their aggression and terrorism.
