Palestinian jailbreak shatters Israel’s prestige: Hamas
Israel has captured four of six Palestinian prisoners, who escaped from high-security Gilbao prison
By Nour Abu Eisha
GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) – The Palestinian jailbreak from a high-security Israeli prison has shattered Israel’s prestige, resistance group Hamas said on Saturday.
On Monday, six Palestinian inmates tunneled out of the high-security Gilboa prison in northern Israel. Israeli forces, however, have managed to capture four of them after a manhunt.
The capture of the four prisoners “is just one round in the open-ended conflict with the Israeli occupation,” Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum said in a statement.
"This round will be a driving force for the Palestinian people in the West Bank to continue their resistance and uprising against the (Israeli) occupation." Barhoum added.
The Hamas spokesman said that the jailbreak “has revived hopes of freedom among the Palestinian people”.
The jailbreak has been hailed as a “big victory” by Palestinians, while Israelis decried it as a major security and intelligence failure.
