Hamas has put out a statement addressing Switzerland’s decision to enforce a new law banning the group and related organisations on May 15.
Al Jazeera reports a summary of their translated comments:
- Switzerland’s decision to ban the movement is a dangerous bias towards the occupation and a denial of its legal and humanitarian obligations.
- Switzerland’s political and moral commitments require urgent action to halt the [Israeli PM] Netanyahu government’s violations of international law.
- We call on Switzerland to reverse its unjust decision, stand up for justice, and support our people’s struggle to end the occupation.
