Hamas claims two people were killed in an IDF drone strike near the West Bank town of Tulkarem earlier today as members of its armed wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam brigades, APA reports citing Times of Israel.
In a statement, the terror groups names the two as Ihab Abu Atiwi, a commander, and Ramez Damiri, and says that their blood has not been spilled “in vain” but will encourage “the escalation of the resistance and the continuation of its heroic operations.”
Hamas further condemns the ongoing IDF operation in Jenin, and calls on West Bank Palestinians to carry out attacks against “the occupation and its settlers.”
The IDF has said it will provide more details on the Tulkarem strike later today.
