Khaled Mashaal, nine other Hamas political leaders sanctioned by EU along with four Jewish groups

The decision was implemented in the interest of curbing Hamas violence, according to the measure, which explained that the terrorist organization’s military wings are subject to political leaders

Senior Hamas official Khaled Mashaal and nine other Hamas political bureau leaders were sanctioned by the European Union on Thursday, along with four West Bank Jewish groups.
Mashaal, Nizar Mohammed Awadallah, Mohammad Nazzal, Husamn Badran, Khalil Al Hayya, Muhammad Ismail Darwish, Zaher Jabarin, Abu Khalil Al Quds, Fathi Hamad, and Moussa Abu Mazrouk were sanctioned by the EU Council after members’ foreign ministers agreed to the matter on May 11.

The decision was implemented in the interest of curbing Hamas violence, according to the measure, which explained that the Palestinian terrorist organization’s military wings are subject to the political leaders.

“The members of the Politburo play a significant role in the decision-making process and exert considerable influence over the actions of the military wing of Hamas, including its violent actions,” the Council said in a statement. “Therefore, they bear overall responsibility for those actions.”

Hamas condemned the decision, arguing that the sanctions were biased and in favor of Israeli narratives.

New American Strikes Target Iranian Military Site That Reportedly Fired Drones at US Cargo Ship
