On Sunday evening, Hamas considered the Israeli government's decision to form terrorist militias under the name of the "National Guard" led by the so-called Minister of National Security Itamar Ben Gvir , as a dangerous development.

Hazem Qassem , Hamas spokesman, said that this decision confirms that "the fascist Zionist government is going to escalate its aggression against our people in the cities of the occupied interior and to practice its terror against them." according to his expression.

He added, "This decision of the fascist occupation government confirms that the racist-fascist behavior is the main component of all its behavior and policy, and that the mentality of ethnic cleansing is still present in the Zionist policy against our people in the occupied interior."
