Hamas: Zionist Settler Attacks Are an Organized Crime Aimed at Terrorizing Farmers and Forcing Palestinians from Their Lands

The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) has condemned the escalation of attacks by Zionist settlers against the Palestinian people in the occupied West Bank, describing them as an organized Zionist crime intended to terrorize farmers and forcibly displace them from their lands. The movement stressed that these assaults are part of a systematic settlement plan sponsored by the Israeli army and its extremist government.
In a statement issued on Saturday, Hamas pointed out that the UN’s documentation of over 260 settler assaults in October exposes the true nature of the occupying entity, confirming that what is happening is a deliberate and systematic campaign of organized terrorism designed to break the Palestinians’ will and compel them to abandon their land.
The movement added that targeting agricultural lands during the olive harvest season reveals the enemy’s intent to undermine Palestinian resilience and destroy farmers’ livelihoods, as part of a wider economic and psychological war waged against the entire Palestinian people.
Hamas emphasized that these acts constitute a flagrant violation of international laws and norms, asserting that the Palestinian people will never leave their land nor relinquish their rights, no matter the extent of the enemy’s crimes. The steadfast resistance, the statement said, will continue to serve as the protective shield of both land and people in the face of all Judaization and displacement schemes.
The movement called on the international community and the United Nations to fulfill their legal and moral responsibilities by taking immediate action to halt these crimes and hold the leaders of the Israeli entity and its settlers accountable for their ongoing assaults on Palestinian farmers and their lands.
