Hamas Urges Iran to Stop Targeting Neighbouring Countries

In a rare appeal, Hamas also urged the international community to take steps to end the war that has gripped the Middle East since it began



on February 28. 

"While affirming the right of the Islamic Republic of Iran to respond to this aggression by all available means in accordance with international norms and laws, the movement calls on the brothers in Iran to avoid targeting neighbouring countries," Hamas said in a statement -- its first such public appeal to Tehran.
