Hamas Commemorates October 7 Attack on Israel Ahead of Anniversary
In a video statement, Hamas official Khalil al-Hayya praised the October 7 attack on Israel, which resulted in 1,205 deaths and sparked the ongoing war in Gaza. Al-Hayya hailed the attack as a pivotal moment that shattered Israel’s perceived superiority.
Al-Hayya emphasized Gazans’ resilience despite “torture, terrorism, genocide, and daily massacre.”
Months of negotiations mediated by Qatar, Egypt, and the US have failed to halt fighting.
Al-Hayya reiterated Hamas’s stance that Israel obstructed a truce in Gaza, stating: “What we rejected yesterday, we will not accept tomorrow.”
