Zionist occupation forces (ZOF) killed three sons of Hamas leader Ismail Haneyya and three of their children in Shati refugee camp, west of Gaza, on Wednesday evening.

Local sources said that Amir, Mohammed, and Hazem, the sons of Haneyya, were killed in the ZOF shelling of their car along with three of their offspring, while a fourth kid was injured and taken to hospital.

Haneyya, commenting on the incident, said that it was an honor for his family that his sons were martyred, adding that around 60 of his family members were killed in the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza.

“Such crimes will only boost our steadfastness and insistence on upholding our principles,” he added.

“The enemy is in big illusion if it thinks that killing my sons will make us change our positions,” Haneyya underlined.

For its part, the Government Media Office (GMO) said in a statement on Wednesday that the ZOF committed yet another massacre on the first day of the holy Eid al-Fitr by targeting the car in which the sons of Haneyya and their children were aboard.

The GMO strongly condemned the continuing Israeli massacres, adding that 125 martyrs were transferred to hospitals over the past 24 hours. (ILKHA)
