Head of the Hamas Political Bureau Ismail Haniyeh said that the Palestinian people will face the Israeli blockade and colonial settlement expansion in the occupied West Bank with steadfastness, resilience, and resistance.

In a press release, the Hamas chief emphasised that the most recent Israeli violations in the West Bank, including arresting and killing Palestinian citizens, demolishing homes, and continuing the annexation and Juadization plans in Jerusalem "will not break the Palestinian people's steadfastness and resilience”.

Haniyeh explained that security or political solutions are impossible in the West Bank now, as the Oslo Accords have failed.

He added: “The security solution that is based on killing and assassinating Palestinians and committing crimes across the West Bank will not break the Palestinian people.”

"There is no solution but ending the Israeli occupation of our land and holy places,” the Hamas chief concluded.
