Hamas issued a proclamation against Minister Ben Gabir following his arrival at the site of the demolition of the building today in the A-Tor neighborhood in East Jerusalem:

"The provocative scene of the extremist and criminal minister Ben Gabir, who appeared personally and blatantly at the demolition site of a residential building in Tor in occupied Jerusalem, illustrates the organized terrorism run by the occupation government, which sponsors extremism and crime in all its forms.

The increasing demolition operations in occupied Jerusalem, the latest of which is the demolition of a five-story residential building in Tor, under the direct supervision of the extremist Ben Gabir, are being carried out as part of the election campaign of the criminal leaders of the occupation, who compete with each other in harassing and harming our people and our country.

We demand that the international community and human rights organizations intervene immediately to curb the occupation and stop its plans to demolish homes and displace our people. Also, we call on the masses of our people to use all means of confrontation and resistance to the increasing crimes of destruction in Jerusalem, the West Bank and inside the occupied territories, and to strengthen the firm stand of our people, as they are the fortified wall against the malicious plans of the occupation.
