Hamas declared on Tuesday that the military and political realities after 640 days of the Israeli war on Gaza have made it clear to the entire world that the occupation has utterly failed to break Gaza’s will or subdue its resistance.

In its statement, Hamas said the slogans of a “crushing defeat” and the “complete eradication” of the movement had collapsed in the face of explosive tunnels, complex resistance ambushes, and the illusion of freeing captives by force was shattered under relentless resistance strikes.
The statement added that "Gideon" armored vehicles were burned in Beit Hanoun and Khan Younis, with their crews killed, while the resistance continues to fight bravely and with parity, despite hunger and siege, as the occupation continues to commit massacres against civilians and innocents.
Hamas stressed that the resistance has forced Israel to admit its failure and the impossibility of simultaneously achieving the release of captives and defeating the resistance. It said the axes of Israeli incursion have turned into death traps, from which soldiers do not emerge unharmed.
The group emphasized that Israel's persistent attempts to forcibly displace Palestinians and impose ethnic cleansing have been met with heroic steadfastness by the people, who resisted death, hunger, and bombardment, and rejected having their future dictated by intelligence rooms or political dictates.
Hamas concluded by stating that this comprehensive failure — militarily, politically, and morally — exposes the falsehood of the Zionist propaganda machine, reaffirming that this battle was never just about weapons and rockets, but also a battle of consciousness, willpower, and resilience.
Since October 7, 2023, Israel — with U.S. support — has waged what has been described as a genocide in Gaza, involving widespread killing, starvation, destruction, and displacement, in defiance of international appeals and binding orders from the International Court of Justice to stop.
The war has resulted in around 194,000 Palestinians killed or injured, most of them children and women, with over 11,000 missing, hundreds of thousands displaced, and famine claiming the lives of many — including children — amid widespread devastation.
