Hamas declares 'day of wrath' against Israel

Hamas called on Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and annexed east Jerusalem to mark a "day of wrath" today by demonstrating against the Israeli offensive on the Gaza Strip.

The Islamist movement called on its website for massive marches following the weekly Muslim prayers, starting off from the Al-Aqsa mosque compound in Jerusalem and from all the mosques in the West Bank.

Let Friday be a day of solidarity with our people in Gaza and a day of wrath against the Zionist occupation and its settlers, said Hamas, which has ruled the Gaza Strip since ousting forces loyal to Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas in June last year.

At least 414 Palestinians, most Hamas members, but including scores of civilians, have been killed in the Israeli blitz on Hamas targets in Gaza that started on Saturday.
