“This is a continuance of the U.S. policy of atrocities,” Haniyeh told reporters today in Gaza City.
Hamas, which is considered a terrorist group by the U.S., European Union, and Israel, is scheduled to sign a reconciliation agreement with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas of the Fatah faction this week in Cairo.
