Hamas says Israel failed to achieve any of its goals in Gaza on war anniversary
The Palestinian movement Hamas has said on Tuesday that Israel has failed to achieve any of its objectives in its genocidal war on Gaza and that it was becoming increasingly isolated on the world stage due to the abuses it was carrying out in the besieged enclave.
Senior Hamas official Fawzi Barhoum said in a televised speech that despite laying waste to much of the enclave, Israel had failed in its attempts to expel Palestinians to other countries and that Israel's repeated attacks across the wider Middle East had exposed itself as a threat to the region.
"[The ongoing genocide] has resulted in the occupation facing unprecedented isolation and triggered [activists and] movements to stand with our people and recognise their independent state," he said.
Barhoum's comments came on the second anniversary of the start of the war, and a day after Hamas mediators arrived in the Egyptian Red Sea resort city of Sharm el-Sheikh to start indirect talks about ending the genocide.
