In response to the martyrdom of one of the al-Qassam commanders in the West Bank, the Hamas movement announced that these cowardly crimes by the Zionists increase the will of our people to fight against the invaders and we ask all our people in the West Bank to intensify the resistance against the Zionists.

Iran Press/ West Asia: The Palestinian resistance committees stated in response to the terrorist attack by the Zionist army on the Tulkarm camp located in the north of the West Bank: We condole the martyrdom of Hessam Mallah, Mujahid, and our beloved commander in the Ezzedin Al-Qassam Battalions in the cowardly terrorist operation of the occupying regime in Tulkarm camp.

It is stated in the statement: We ask our free people and the revolutionary youth of Palestine to intensify the resistance and intifada against the occupiers and hit the Zionist criminal enemy throughout Palestine with every possible means and method.

The Hamas movement, by stating the same purpose, announced that the occupation and fascist Zionist regime's aggression in Tulkarm and the assassination of resistance fighters were in line with other barbaric crimes committed by the Zionists and would never weaken the power of the people and our resistance.

Hamas added: The continuous attacks of the occupying and fascist Zionist regime on the West Bank provinces and the continuation of the policy of terror against our heroic fighters and Mujahideen are a confirmation of the criminal approach of this regime from Gaza to the West Bank and every part of our occupied land and the unsuccessful efforts of the Zionists. 

In the Hamas statement, it is said: We condole the martyrdom of commander Hessam Mallah in the cowardly terrorist crimes of the occupying army in the Tulkarem camp, as well as our two other martyrs in the Nurshams camp, and we are among our great heroes in Tulkarem and its camps and all the provinces of the West Bank that resisted aggression. We appreciate the fact that the occupying regime is standing up and disrupting the security calculations of the Zionists.

The Ezzeddin al-Qassam battalions also issued a statement confirming the martyrdom of this Palestinian fighter, saying that the security forces of the Zionist regime infiltrated the Tulkarm camp under the guise of Palestinians and martyred Hossam Mallah. 204
