Al-Hayya: ‘israel’ will not obtain its captives unless it pays the price
The Deputy Chairman of Hamas in Gaza, Khalil al-Hayya, acknowledged in an interview with Al Jazeera on Monday that
“The occupation will not obtain its captives except at three conditions: providing relief to our people, stopping the aggression, and exchanging prisoners,” he said.
Regarding Israel’s planned military operation in Rafah, he further told Al Jazeera, that “just as the occupation failed to eliminate the resistance’s capabilities in the northern Gaza Strip, the central region, and Khan Yunis, the occupation will fail to extend its control over Rafah.”
He stressed that “the Palestinian people still support their resistance, despite the tragic conditions they are experiencing, such as starvation and genocide.”
He further noted that “the entire world failed to pass its moral test in the face of the Israeli crimes, and realized that without a fully sovereign Palestinian state, the region will not calm down.”
