TEL AVIV – Hamas praised the terror attack in Tel Aviv that left four people dead and another 16 injured on Wednesday evening, saying it was to avenge Israeli “violations” at the Al-Aqsa Mosque on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount.
“The Tel Aviv operation is a natural response to Israeli desecration of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the crimes against the Palestinian people,” Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said in a statement, but failed to specify the nature of the “violations and crimes.”
The Gaza-based Islamist group earlier announced that the two terrorists were Hamas members. Hamas praised the shooting as a “heroic operation” and warned the “Zionists” of “more surprises” to follow.
Hamas added that the attack was “a message from children of the resistance to leaders of the occupation, especially [Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman],” who took office last week.
The terror group’s chief, Ismail Haniyeh, called the wounded terrorist a “hero” and said he was praying for his soul.
