Hundreds of Palestinian people have been protesting at Beita town to restore some plots of lands confiscated recently by Israeli occupation authorities. They also protest the establishment of new colonial settlements in the area.
The zionist occupation forces killed Palestinian civilian Mohammed Ali Khabisa on Friday, which led to fierce confrontations with unarmed Palestinian protesters in the town.
In a phone call with the martyr’s father, the Hamas chief said that the movement sent its regards to the protesters at Beita town and wished a speedy recovery for the wounded.
Haniyeh also extended his condolences to Khabisa’s family.
The killing of Khabisa indicated the Palestinian people are united behind the option of resistance, said the Hamas top official.
Confirming that the resistance will remain the protective shield for the Palestinian people, Haniyeh also pointed out that Hamas is keen on preserving this unity in the face of the Israeli occupation forces.
