The Palestinian Resistance factions have called for general mobilization in the West Bank, calling on people to fulfill their responsibilities in confronting the widespread Israeli aggression.

The Palestinian Resistance factions issued statements in response to the extensive Israeli aggression  that the Israeli occupation forces launched on Wednesday morning across the northern occupied West Bank region of occupied Palestine. 

Hamas urges West Bank mobilization in defense of Palestine

In its statement, Hamas confirmed that the Israeli occupation’s aggression against the West Bank is “an attempt to implement the plans of the extremist government,” emphasizing that, in addition to the ongoing genocide in Gaza, the aggression in the West Bank is a natural outcome of the “suspicious international silence” over “Israel’s” blatant violations of all international laws.

Hamas called for escalating all forms of Resistance and confronting the invading Israeli occupation and its settlers “in every part of our occupied land,” urging the people, freedom fighters, and rebellious youth across the West Bank to Mobilize. 

Hamas further urged the Palestinian security forces “to fulfill their responsibilities, recognize the dangers threatening our national cause, join the sacred battle of our people, and continue the path of Resistance until the occupation is defeated and our people achieve their freedom and right to self-determination.”

Moreover, in the statement, Hamas emphasized that the current IOF campaign “will inevitably break before the steadfastness and fortitude of our people in the cities, towns, and camps of the West Bank.”

Mujahideen Movement: Aggression on West Bank part of open war on Palestine

The Mujahideen Movement, for its part, stated that the “aggression against the West Bank was part of the open war led by the occupation government and its leader, Benjamin Netanyahu.”

The movement held the US administration “fully responsible for this new brutal aggression against our people in the West Bank due to its sponsorship and support for the terrorism and crimes of the occupying entity [Israel].”

Moreover, the movement also called on “everyone who can bear arms to raise them against the Israeli aggression” and urged the Palestinian security forces to engage in defending the Palestinian people in the West Bank.
