Hamas slammed the widespread attacks by Israeli settlers against Palestinians across the occupied West Bank on Tuesday as "Nazi behavior" and "collective terrorism."

Hamas spokesman Hazem Qassem also accused the Israeli occupation army and government for providing cover for these attacks. 

"These attacks confirm that terrorism and brutality span all parts of the Zionist entity and its institutions," he added.

On Monday, settlers carried out several attacks across the occupied West Bank after two Hamas militants shot four Israelis dead near Ramallah.
