Abu Obaida issues statement following Hezbollah’s strike on “Israel”

Abu Obaida, the military spokesperson for Hamas’ armed wing Al-Qassam Brigades, commended today what he called the “initial retaliatory operation by our brothers in Hezbollah in response to the assassination of Commander Fouad Shukr”.

Abu Obaida said the brigades “deeply value the significant sacrifices made by our people and heroic resistance in Lebanon."

He added that Hezbollah’s strike against “Israel” reaffirms the shift in the strategic reality for the Israeli Occupation since the start of Operation Aqsa Typhoon.

“There is no safety for the enemy from retribution, and no limits to the potential for striking them anywhere, from any front,” Abu Obaida said.

"All fronts will remain active and escalating against the enemy as long as the aggression against our people continues,” the statement on Abu Obaida’s official Telegram channel concluded.
