Hamas threatens to "continue the struggle and the intifada" against the backdrop of the senior arrest last night (Monday) in Jenin. Meanwhile, a delegation of Egyptian intelligence is expected to enter the Gaza Strip today, according to Palestinian reports.
The delegation's visit was planned before the arrest of a senior jihadist last night in the Jenin refugee camp.
The members of the delegation will discuss with the Hamas leadership a series of issues including the economic situation and the issue of promoting projects for the reconstruction of the Strip.
Following last night's developments in Jenin, it seems that the security issue will be at the center of the agenda.
In the meantime, let's recall that Hamas is trying to promote a prisoner exchange deal with Israel under which Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli prisons will be released.
In response to last night's events, Hamas said that "the barbaric aggression in Jenin where the senior Jihad leader Bassam Saadi was arrested will ignite the resistance that will haunt the occupation and its settlers everywhere on our land. The Palestinian blood flowing on the lands of the homeland will remain a beacon that will illuminate for our young people the path of the blessed intifada towards liberation and return." .

The organization's spokesperson Fawzi Barhoum stated that "Israel's behavior, its security policy, and the arrest of symbols of the resistance will not succeed in harming the awareness of the masses in the West Bank, breaking their will or preventing the escalation of the resistance, especially the armed resistance."
Yesterday, a senior Hamas official abroad, Musa Dodin, referred to the wave of arrests of Hamas operatives carried out by Israel in Judea and Samaria and said that "this is a desperate attempt that will not succeed in eliminating their role in the struggle or extinguishing the flame of the ongoing popular protest against the crimes of the occupation. The threats to re-arrest released detainees if they engage in activity For Hamas, they reflect a state of bankruptcy and helplessness of the occupation in dealing with the heroism of our people. Our people will continue the struggle and intifada against the occupation and make it pay for its crimes until we obtain all our legal rights."
