‘Palestinians will not raise the white flag’: Hamas on West Bank killings
Senior Hamas official Abdel Hakim Henini has said that “Israel is delusional if it thinks that its massacres in the West Bank and Gaza will push the Palestinian people to leave their land or to surrender.”
An Israeli raid on a village near Jenin has so far rendered six Palestinian men dead.
In a statement on the official Hamas Telegram channel, Henini said: “Israel has not learned from history that people who defend their freedom and independence cannot be beaten no matter how big their sacrifices are.”
“With today’s killings in the West Bank, the enemy will not achieve its goals,” he added.

Thousands in Israeli detention being tortured, abused: Prisoner rights group
Testimonies from several prisoners who were forcibly disappeared by the Israeli army from Gaza and were just released have revealed that detainees are being subject to torture, a rights group says.
The Palestinian Prisoners’ Club said that thousands of Gaza detainees are still subject to enforced disappearance. Israeli authorities refuse to disclose their identities and places of detention, and is preventing the International Committee of the Red Cross from visiting them.
“With the release of some Gaza, accounts of torture crimes and harsh detention conditions are emerging, in addition to the state of the released prisoners, which reflects the level of torture and humiliation to which they were subjected,” the group said.
The group also said that Israeli authorities are refusing to disclose the number of prisoners who have died in prison.
“The Prisoners’ Club renews its demand for the necessity of an international investigation into the crimes and grave violations committed against detainees and prisoners in Israeli prisons and camps.”
