Palestinian Resistance factions have praised the operation which killed two Israelis in Tel Aviv on Thursday night, stressing that “all forms of resistance against Israeli occupation will continue.”
Resistance movement Hamas called the operation “heroic” and vowed that resistance against the occupation “is continuing and escalating.”
“The continuing terrorism of the occupation and its crimes, the attempts to Judaize Jerusalem and to perform sacrifices in the Al-Aqsa Mosque in order to build its so-called ‘Temple’ during what they call ‘Passover’ — against it we will dedicate our blood and bullets,” the Resistance group said in a statement.
Several senior officials of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement also praised the attack, with many noting that the shooting took place deep inside the Zionist entity’s center.
“This heroic operation deep in Tel Aviv confirms how frail [Israel] is, how susceptible it is to being broken,” senior Islamic Jihad member Yousef al-Hasayneh said, according to a statement circulated in Palestinian media.
The Dizengoff shooting was the latest in a wave of Palestinian resistance operations inside the occupied territories over the past few weeks. Besides Thursday night’s victims, eleven Israelis have been killed so far in recent Palestinian attacks.
