The Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas said that Israeli colonial settlers are accomplices in killing eleven Palestinian civilians in the West Bank last May.

"The news report published in Ha'aretz which revealed the involvement of Israeli colonists in murdering eleven Palestinians in West Bank last May is further evidence of the engagement of all the Israeli occupation components in the aggression against the Palestinian people," said Hamas spokesperson, Hazem Qassem.

Qassem confirmed that besides stealing the Palestinian lands, the Zionist colonial settlers are the spearhead of the Zionist project; therefore, they must be expelled from our entire Palestinian land.
