Since the Gaza war began, Hamas has urged Egyptians and Jordanians to revolt over their governments’ ties with Israel and alleged neglect of Palestinians.
KHALED ABU TOAMEH -- After rejecting all proposals for a ceasefire-and-hostage deal, the Iran-backed Palestinian terror group Hamas is now trying to incite Arabs to revolt against their own governments under the pretext that the Arab leaders have failed to help the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
Recently, senior Hamas official Khalil al-Hayya, who together with his family moved from the Gaza Strip to Qatar before the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led invasion of Israel, called on Arabs to “march toward Palestine by land and sea and besiege the [Israeli embassies in Arab countries, especially Egypt and Jordan].”
Addressing the Egyptian people, al-Hayya said: “O people of Egypt, how can you allow your [Palestinian] brothers near your border to die?”
