The Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement has stated that Iran reserves the right to make decisions and take measures to respond to this terrorist act by the United States.
The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) also in a statement condemned the actions of American fighter jets in harassing the Iranian passenger plane and endangering the lives of its passengers.
Hamas attributed the US act as the rebellious nature and a symbol of the implementation of the concept of international terrorism.
