Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad says shooting 'natural consequence' settler violence Hamas has said that the deadly shooting in central Israel is a response to “aggression against Gaza and the continued crimes of Judaisation, extrajudicial killings, settlement expansion, raids, and daily attacks against our people in the West Bank and Jerusalem”. “The occupation – no matter how far it goes in its oppression and crimes – will not succeed in stopping the rise of resistance in the valiant West Bank,” it said in a statement. Meanwhile the Palestinian Islamic Jjihad (PIJ) said the attack is a "natural consequence of the criminal policies pursued by the war criminal government of the Zionist entity”.
