Jerusalem latest: Hamas says Trump has opened ‘the gates of hell’ and calls for ‘day of rage’

Share:

​Hamas has said US President Donald Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and the decision to move the US embassy there, “opens the gates of hell”.

“Trump’s decision on Jerusalem will not succeed in changing the fact that Jerusalem is an Arab Muslim land,” a spokesperson for the militant group running Gaza noted.

The group has also repeatedly called for a Palestinian “day of rage” on 8 December as well.

“The youth and the Palestinian resistance in the West Bank need to respond with all means available to the US decision that harms our Jerusalem,” the statement read.

Hamas called the decision about the city – home to holy sites for Jews, Muslims, and Christians – “a red line”.
