https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/hamas-armed-wing-al-qassam-brigades-calls-escalation-across-all-fronts-2024-04-23/The spokesperson for Hamas' armed al-Qassam Brigades, Abu Ubaida, called on Tuesday for an escalation across all fronts in a televised speech marking 200 days since the start of the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip on Oct. 7.
Israel says it is seeking to eradicate Hamas, which controls the enclave, in a war that has killed more than 34,000 Palestinians thus far. The war started when the militant group attacked Israel, killing 1,200 and taking 253 hostages, according to Israeli tallies.
In a video aired by Al Jazeera TV, Abu Ubaida praised Iran's attack on Israel on April 13, saying the direct strikes with explosive drones and missiles "set new rules, drew important equations, and confused the enemy and those behind it."
He also called for an escalation in the West Bank and Jordan calling it "one of the most important Arab fronts."

on their US front? I am worried what that might look like as we already have this
[Izz ad-Din] Al-Qassam [Brigades], make us proud, take another soldier out, anti-Israel demonstrators chanted on Friday night in a video published on social media by pro-Palestinian activist ThizzL. We say justice, you say how? Burn Tel Aviv to the ground. Go Hamas, we love you. We support your rockets too.
On Wednesday, in another video published by ThizzL, activists called for Hamas's military wing to "kill another soldier now."
During a speech live streamed by the Palestine Solidarity Working Group on Saturday night, a protest leader said in a speech, "Let it be known that it was the Al-Aqsa Flood that put the global intifada back on the table again. And it is the sacrificial spirit of the Palestinian freedom fighters that will guide every struggle on every corner of the earth to victory."
"Remember that militancy breeds Resistance," said the speaker. "Thousands upon thousands of students around the world have been moved to rebel because of your militancy."
