The statement, translated by Visegrad 24, read: "We value & appreciate the movement of Western protesters & occupiers from among the students of Western universities, who by their occupying & protests have expressed their rejection of the ongoing genocide."
This marks the latest case of a terrorist organization officially coming out in support of the tens of thousands of student Gaza activists. Head of Hamas Khaled Mashal released a statement 2 weeks ago urging protesters to "continue" their "jihad."
"We thank the great student flood which emerged from the American, European, and western universities," he said. "We are grateful for the spirit that we have witnessed in our nation, and in humanity as a whole."
He continued that, thanks to the support of those in western nations, "we have an opportunity to defeat Israel, Allah willing."
"We have an opportunity to dismantle the Zionist enterprise ... and to make Palestine a blessing to mankind," Mashal added. "The first step is to continue what you started immediately following October 7 ... Continue your financial jihad. We want a continuous financial flood in support of Gaza to provide the people shelter, aid, and food, and in support of the mujahideen and in order to buy weapons for them."
He concluded by declaring that the destruction of the Jewish state would be "good for the Arabs [and] the Muslims," and that "annihilating the Zionists is good for humanity as a whole."
