A top Hamas leader has declared the terror group hopes for a “permanent war” with Israel calling on Arab countries in the Middle East to join the conflict.<\/p>\n
Khalil al-Hayya, a member of Hamas\u2019s top leadership body, said the bloody October 7 attacks against Israel were necessary to “change the entire equation and not just have a clash” putting their cause back on the world stage.<\/p>\n
Speaking to The New York Times, al-Hayya said: “We succeeded in putting the Palestinian issue back on the table, and now no one in the region is experiencing calm.”<\/p>\n
The operation, which saw at least 1,400 Israelis killed and 240 taken to Gaza as hostages, has been praised by Hamas leaders hiding out in Qatar.<\/p>\n
Al-Hayya continued: “I hope that the state of war with Israel will become permanent on all the borders and that the Arab world will stand with us.”<\/p>\n

We had to tell people that the Palestinian cause would not die.”<\/p>\n Israel responded to the attack by declaring war on Hamas and carrying out thousands of airstrikes in the Gaza Strip.<\/p>\n It has since launched a ground invasion of the enclave in order to destroy the terror group and heavy fighting has been reported inside the strip.<\/p>\n Don’t miss… <\/strong> Hamas rocket expert responsible for innocent civilian deaths killed in airstrike[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
