The former Hamas leader and politician Khaled Meshaal states that Moscow benefited from the support of the terrorist group Hamas, and that Russia will now teach the terrorist attack on Israel on October 7 in the country’s military schools. He states this in an interview with an Egyptian TV channel. – For your information, Russia has benefited from our actions. We have diverted American attention from them and Ukraine. The Russians told us that they would teach our October 7 attack in their military schools, says Meshaal during the interview. He also states that China is considering using a similar approach against archenemy Taiwan. – The Arabs give a master lesson to the whole world, he adds. Russian citizens among the hostages According to media reports, eight Russian citizens are currently being held captive by Hamas in Gaza. The terrorist group states that it is actively looking for them, and is willing to release them, reports the Ukrainian Kyiv Post. According to Hamas politician Musa Abu Marzouk, Hamas has received a list of Russian citizens, including those with dual citizenship, from the Russian Foreign Ministry. “We are aware of this list and will carefully process it because we see Russia as our closest friend,” Marzouk said, according to Russian state media. Hamas terrorist attack It was early on Saturday morning, October 7, that Hamas, branded as a terrorist, carried out a surprise attack on Israel. Thousands of rockets were fired at Israel from Gaza. At the same time, armed Hamas militiamen broke through the border and entered kibbutzim and a music festival where they carried out massacres. At least 1,400 people, most of them civilians, were killed in the attacks and over 200 people were taken hostage. Israel responded by launching a massive airstrike against Gaza. That the attack took Israel to bed is seen as a major failure for the Israeli intelligence service, which is considered to be among the best in the world. The UN children’s fund Unicef states that more than 420 children have been killed or injured in Gaza every day since the beginning of the war. So far, over 3,200 children have been killed in Gaza since the start of the war, according to the Gaza Health Authority. According to the same data, a total of more than 8,300 people have been killed in Gaza.
