The head of the Hamas’ political bureau, Ismail Haniyeh, attacked Israel’s decision to stop the transfer of fuel to Gaza in response to the continued terrorist attacks involving incendiary balloons: “The decision is open aggression” stated Haniyeh.

During a rally in Gaza on Wednesday, Haniyeh said: “The Israeli decision to stop the entry of Qatari fuel into Gaza for the power plant in the Gaza Strip is open aggression on the rights obtained through the demonstrations of the March of the Return.”

On Wednesday, YWN-Israel reported that there were 19 fires resulting from incendiary balloon attacks, which continue on a daily basis.

B’chasdei Hashem, all of the fires on Wednesday were extinguished in a relatively short time and there were no injuries or significant damage.
