The head of the Arab and Islamic Relations Office in Hamas, Khalil Al-Hayya, said today, Thursday, June 1, 2023, that the resistance in the West Bank and Gaza and everywhere has its hand on the trigger, and that the Israeli occupation is pushing the region into a new war.

The statements of Khalil al-Hayyah, a leader in the Hamas movement, were as follows:

- The occupation is trying to resolve the conflict in the issue of Jerusalem by fully Judaizing it, expelling its people and controlling the holy sites.

- The meeting of the occupation government in a tunnel under Al-Aqsa Mosque indicates that the entity is going towards tension in the region and pushing it towards an intense conflict.

Our Palestinian people will not surrender and will continue to resist the occupation.

- The haste of the occupation to resolve the battle of Jerusalem is a haste for its demise and its end.

- The existence of the Zionist entity poses a threat to the region and the world as a whole.

- We will not give up the city of Jerusalem and the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Our Palestinian people and their resistance stand against the Zionist occupation.

- The occupation is more important if it thinks that it is possible to separate the resistance arenas from one another.

- The Arab and Islamic nation united around the issue of Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa Mosque.

- The occupation, by accelerating settlement in the West Bank, is pushing to ignite the land under its feet, and its continuation is deeply striking the train of normalization.

- The occupation is pushing the region into a new war, and it will pay the price for it.

- The resistance in the West Bank, Gaza and everywhere has its hand on the trigger and is ready to defend its people, Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa Mosque with everything it has.

- Our Palestinian people are united in facing the occupation, and the occupation is suffering from a real struggle between its internal components.

- The occupation is weak and fragile, and it is living in a stage of confinement and self-defense.

The threats of the occupation do not confuse us and do not affect our decisions, alliances, strategies, accumulation of power and escalation of resistance.

- We work to defend our people with all our strength, and the Zionist occupation is powerless and floundering in its threats.
