The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) has issued a statement expressing support for Iran’s recent retaliatory military operation against Israel.
Hamas views Iran’s actions as a justified response to the attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus and the assassination of Revolutionary Guard leaders.
Hamas emphasised the right of states and peoples in the region to defend themselves against Israeli aggression. The statement called on the Arab and Islamic nations, as well as the global community and regional resistance forces, to continue supporting the Palestinian cause for freedom, independence, and the establishment of a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.
