The member in the political office of Hamas Izzat Al-Rashq considered the Saudi sentences released against the Palestinian, Saudi and Jordanian citizens as shocking and reprehensible.

He said in a statement that "who works for Palestine must be dignified, not criminalized."

He called on the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques to intervene to release them and end the ongoing misery and suffering of the detainees and their families.
