Al-Qassam Brigades claim responsibility for West Bank attack

Hamas's armed wing, al-Qassam Brigades, on Wednesday claimed responsibility for Monday's attack in the West Bank that killed three Israelis, according to Al Jazeera.

The group said it was a joint operation with the Palestinian Islamic Jihad's armed wing, the Quds Brigades, as well as the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade.

The shooting attack on Monday took place near the village of al-Funduq, east of Qalqilya, where Israeli settlers often transit through to the illegal settlements of Kedumim, Shavei Shomron, and others.
