Hamas Condemns Israel for Aggression against Syria

The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas has slammed the Israeli regime for its recent act of aggression against Syria, calling for an end to the turmoil in the country.

In a statement released on Sunday, Hamas denounced the “Zionist aggression on Syria,” calling it a continuation of Israel’s “policy of terror.”
On Sunday, Syria said the Israeli regime had carried out an airstrike targeting a research center in a suburb of Damascus, following heavy losses of al-Qaeda-affiliated groups at the hands of the Syrian army. According to Syrian media reports, Israeli rockets struck the Jamraya research center.
The Jamraya facility was also targeted in an Israeli airstrike in January.
Senior Hamas official Mahmoud al-Zahar has called on Arabs to unite against the Israeli aggression against Syria.
Syria’s Foreign Ministry has sent letters to the United Nations and its Security Council stating that Israel’s aggression shows the links between Tel Aviv and terrorist groups operating in Syria including the al-Qaeda-linked al-Nusra Front.
Syrian Information Minister Omran al-Zoabi told reporters in Damascus on Sunday that Syria had the right and the duty to defend its people by all available means and it would not give in to Israeli acts of aggression.
The Israeli attacks on Syria have made the Middle East more dangerous, the Syrian information minister said.
The Sunday Israeli aggression was Tel Aviv’s second strike on Syria in three days.
