the ongoing Israeli regime’s atrocities in the Gaza Strip and growing international outrage over these acts have prompted many European countries to recognize Palestine.
Previously, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia declared thier recognition of Palestine.
France, Australia, and Belgium have also announced plans to recognize the Palestinian state.
The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) responded to recognition from the UK, canada, and Australia-as well as announcements from other countries-with a statement calling it an importent step in affirming the Palestinian people’s rights to their land and holy sites. Hamas emphasized this act solidifies their right to establish an independent state with Jerusalem as its capital and acknowledges their sacrifices for freedom and return.
Hamas stated that this critically important move must be accompanied by practical measures leading to an immediate end to war and brutal genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. They called for resistance against annexation efforts and Judaization projects in the West Bank and Jerusalem.
Several countries plan to formally recognize Palestine during upcoming sessions at the United Nations General Assembly.
It should be noted that sovereignty over Palestinian territories has already been recognized by 147 countries worldwide.
