Ismail Haniyeh, head of the Hamas political bureau, said on Tuesday that the assassination of the leaders of the Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad movement, with a treacherous operation, will not bring security to the occupier, but rather more resistance.

Haniyeh added, in a press statement, "The enemy made a mistake in its estimates and will pay the price for its crime."

He continued, "Only resistance will determine the way to inflict pain on the treacherous enemy."

He continued, "The aggression targets all of our people, and the resistance is unified in confronting it."
