Hamas warns of action over Gaza siege

Hamas warned on Thursday that continued Israeli eight-year blockade will force the Palestinian movement to take action.

"Continued blockade will push Hamas to carry out actions which could be described as crazy. We will not give in to the blockade," Hamas spokesman, Sami Abu Zuhri told a crowd in Rafah.

Abu Zuhri called for an immediate end to the siege on Gaza and stressed that the Al-Qassam Brigades have the right to respond.

He also called on Egypt to review the decision to label the group as terrorists, adding however that the ruling will not affect the military wing.
