Hamas welcomes Pakistan declaring Israeli PM a 'terrorist'
The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas has welcomed a decision by the Pakistani government to declare the Israeli prime minister a "terrorist."
On Friday, Pakistan’s government said it considered Benjamin Netanyahu a “terrorist” and demanded he be brought to justice for war crimes against the people of Palestine.
“Netanyahu is a terrorist and a perpetrator of war crimes,” said Rana Sanaullah, advisor to Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on political and public affairs.
The Pakistani government also condemned the Israeli regime for committing "war crimes" against the Palestinian people in Gaza.
In a statement on Saturday, Hamas praised the Pakistani government's move.
The Pakistani government's announcement came after thousands of Pakistanis took to the streets of the capital Islamabad to condemn the Israeli regime's genocidal war in the Gaza Strip.
The demonstrators demanded an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and called on the Pakistani government to declare the Israeli prime minister a terrorist.
Israel launched the war on Gaza on October 7 after the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas waged the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm against the occupying entity in response to the Israeli regime's decades-long campaign of bloodletting and devastation against Palestinians.
Since the start of the offensive, the Tel Aviv regime has killed at least 38,919 Palestinians and injured 89,622 more. Thousands more are also missing and presumed dead under rubble.
