Taher Al-Nono, who serves as the media advisor of Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh, said, “The Palestinian resistance will abide by this agreement as long as the Occupation (Israel) does the same."
"Terror organisations have been hit hard and will continue to be hit because of their decision to hit Israel. We'll return peace and quiet for the long term," Israeli Defence Minister Benny Gantz said.
One of the main reasons behind the recent violence is the possible eviction of Palestinian tenants and squatters from the Jewish-owned Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood in East Jerusalem.
