Hamas: rockets will reach the Zionist settlers in the 1948-occupied coastal city of Asqlan

Berichten van de website van Ezzedeen Al Qassam, de militaire vleugel van Hamas, geven een betrouwbaardere indruk van waar de Hamas voor staat dan de commentaren van westerse deskundologen wat betreft het Midden-Oosten.

Ezzedeen Al Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas Movement, has threatened that its rockets will reach the Zionist settlers in the 1948-occupied coastal city of Asqlan [Ashkelon] and areas beyond in retaliation to the intensive and relentless occupation forces troops bombarding of Palestinian homes in Gaza Strip.

Ezzedeen Al Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas Movement, has threatened that its rockets will reach the Zionist settlers in the 1948-occupied coastal city of Asqlan and areas beyond in retaliation to the intensive and relentless occupation forces troops bombarding of Palestinian homes in Gaza Strip.

The threats came apparently after the Brigades fired a salvo of its homemade Qassam rockets at the Zionist settlements around Gaza strip. According to the Zionist medical sources, the rockets killed a settler and seriously injured another settler in addition to 20 others treated for shocks.

Tens of Palestinian citizens, including children and women, were martyred and dozens others were wounded, many in critical condition, due to the incessant occupation forces land and aerial shelling of populated Palestinian areas in the tiny Gaza Strip since Saturday.

Ezzedeen Al Qassam Brigades asserted that the shelling of Sderot was only an initial reprisal to the occupation forces war crimes in Gaza Strip, underling that Asqlan and areas beyond it must brace for new round of Palestinian missile attacks.

Over the past 11 months, Al Qassam Brigades along with other armed wings of the Palestinian resistance heeded a request from PA chief Mahmoud Abbas urging calm; yet, facts on the ground proved that the occupation forces troops hadn't reciprocated the truce even for a single day as they continued killing, wounding, and arresting Palestinian citizens in the West Bank.
