West Bank: 2 Big Hamas Attacks Catch IDF Off-Guard; War Spreads Beyond Gaza? | Israel

Palestine militant group Hamas in a statement on August 31 lauded a "double heroic operation" in the occupied West Bank. Hamas said it attacked IDF in two locations, one at a petrol station in the Israeli Gush Etzion settlement and the other in the Israeli settlement of Karmei Tzur. Hamas said it "is a clear message that resistance will remain striking, prolonged and sustained as long as the brutal occupation's aggression and targeting of our people and land continue".
