Palestinian Resistance movement warned the Zionist entity on Thursday that all options are open, stressing that the occupation is to blame for the escalation in Al-Aqsa.
Islamic Jihad said the Israeli government is in a state of confusion on both security and political levels, warning that such confusion may lead to a dangerous escalation in the region.
The group’s spokesman in the West Bank Tarek Ezzeddine said “Israeli occupation wants to regain prestige amid the Resistance’s continuous readiness and unity of its factions.”
“The Resistance options are all open, and we have repeatedly stressed that we are fully ready to defend our people in Al-Quds.”
The official said that the Israeli occupation “has to realize that it is to blame for the escalation in Al-Aqsa since it is the side who started the aggression on our Al-Quds.”
For his part, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh warned the occupation against allowing Zionist settlers to enter Al-Aqsa Mosque
“I say to Israel that if it thinks that the breaking into of Al-Aqsa will change it’s Islamic character, Israel is under a delusion. What the settlers are doing in the mosque will push toward conflict and confrontation.”
“As we defeated the so-called ‘Flag March’, so will we defeat the policy of break-ins. We are still at the beginning of the campaign,” said Haniyeh.
Meanwhile, the Palestinian Resistance Committees stressed that the Israeli occupation won’t be allowed to change the rules of engagement set by the Resistance during the ‘Sword of Al-Quds’ Op., referring to the operation in retaliation to Israeli aggression during the 10-day Israeli war on Gaza in May 2021.
“The Israeli occupation has to understand that Gaza is not away from the formula in Al-Quds,” the Committees’ spokesman said.
