In a statement, the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas said that \u201cthe occupation\u2019s policy of targeting youths and children in the West Bank represents a heinous crime perpetrated by a government of murder and terrorism, which continues its aggressive practices against our Palestinian people, their land, and their holy sites.\u201d<\/p>\n

The resistance movement added that they \u201caffirm that the aggression of the occupation and its settlers in the West Bank, including the targeting of young men and boys defending their land, the latest of whom was a martyr from the town of Beit Ummar in Hebron, will only increase our people\u2019s adherence to their right and their determination to confront the arrogance and ongoing attacks.\u201d<\/p>\n
