Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood Warns Israel: We Will No Longer Tolerate Attacks on Palestinians

The Islamist Freedom and Justice Party in Egypt warned Israel the country will no longer stand by and tolerate Israeli attacks on Palestinians.

This came after Israel killed Ahmed al-Jaabari, the head of the military wing of Hamas, today in an airstrike.

Egyptian Foreign Ministry urged Israel to end strikes on Gaza immediately.

The Daily Star reported:

Egypt’s Islamist Freedom and Justice Party, formerly headed by President Mohamed Morsi, said on Wednesday Egypt would no longer stand by as Israel attacked Palestinians after air strikes killed a Hamas leader.

The FJP, the political arm of the powerful Muslim Brotherhood movement, said Israeli air strikes that killed top militant Ahmed al-Jaabari in Gaza earlier on Wednesday required “swift Arab and international action to stop the massacres.”

The party, which fielded Morsi in a June election to replace toppled president Hosni Mubarak, said Israel “must take into account the changes in the Arab region and especially Egypt.”

Egypt “will not allow the Palestinians to be subjected to Israeli aggression, as in the past,” the party statement said.

Mubarak, overthrown in early 2011, was criticised by his opponents for his response to an Israeli invasion of Gaza in 2008-2009 following rocket fire by Palestinian militants.
