Hazem Qassem, Hamas spokesman, said on Monday evening that the occupation's killing of the child, Muhammad al-Tamimi, from the village of Nabi Saleh in Ramallah, is a heinous crime that confirms the Nazi occupation army and its terrorist behavior.

Qassem added in a press statement to him: "The occupation has always escaped accountability for its crimes because of the American support for it, the weakness of the positions of international institutions and the silence of the international community, all of which encourage the occupation to repeat its crimes and escalate its aggression."

He continued, "These crimes will not break the resolve and ferocity of our people, and we will continue our legitimate fight to punish the occupation for its crimes and expel it from our land."
