BEIRUT, (PIC)– The Hamas Movement strongly denounced the bombing of the Yarmouk refugee camp in the Syrian capital Damascus which claimed the lives of 20 Palestinians and led to the injury of several others on Thursday evening.

In a press release, Hamas mourned the families of the victims and called on the Syrian rivals not to drag the Palestinian refugees into the Syrian crisis.

“As we express our pain for the bloodshed of the Palestinians, we also express our great pain and sorrow for the ongoing bloodshed of the dear Syrian people,” Hamas underscored.

According to Palestinian soruces, Ja’una street in the Yarmouk refugee camp was bombed with mortar shells a few minutes after the Palestinian families broke their fast at twilight yesterday.
