Hamas responds to LBCI report

Hamas' media office in Lebanon issued a statement on Friday in response to a report by LBCI, denouncing it as biased and unfair.

The report, titled "War of Lunatics and Extremists," compared the actions of the Israeli occupation government to the resistance in Gaza, drawing criticism from Hamas for its alleged distortions and implicit alignment with Israeli narratives.

The statement highlighted the report's attempt to equate recent atrocities with historical context, overlooking decades of Israeli occupation, settlement expansion, and aggression against Palestinian territories. Hamas accused the report of disregarding its perspective and justifying Israeli crimes while criminalizing Palestinian resistance efforts.

Moreover, Hamas condemned the report's alleged intent to incite against the resistance and criminalize its methods, considering accusations of Hamas killing Israeli civilians as a vindication of Israeli atrocities. The comparison drawn between resistance leaders and Israeli occupiers was deemed as biased support for the occupation's agenda.

The statement concluded with a call for LBCI to uphold impartiality and stand with the victims, urging the channel to refrain from aligning with Israeli narratives and promoting dehumanizing wars against the Palestinian people.
