Hamas spokesperson Jehad Taha has condemned in the strongest terms possible the Israeli occupation deduction of millions from Palestinian tax revenues.  

In a press statement, the Hamas spokesperson called on the Palestinian authority not to cave to the blackmail and threats of the Israeli occupation and to continue to support the steadfastness of the families of Palestinian detainees and martyrs.

“This is a battle to defend our national rights and our rights to self-determination,” Taha said.
