Tehran, IRNA - The Palestinian Resistance Movement Hamas has hailed a resolution approved overwhelmingly by the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) that calls for an end to the occupation of Palestinian lands by the Zionist regime.

Hamas, in a statement, said on Wednesday night that the adoption of this resolution expresses the true international will to support the Palestinian nation and its legitimate rights, and above all the right to self-determination and the formation of an independent state with al-Quds as its capital.

Hamas thanked the countries that voted in favor of the resolution and urged them to take more actions and decisions that will isolate the fascist occupation regime and put pressure on it to stop the genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.

The United Nations General Assembly on Wednesday local time overwhelmingly approved the resolution that was proposed in response to July ruling by the International Court of Justice that Israel’s presence in the Palestinian territories is unlawful and must end.

The approved resolution calls for the withdrawal of all Israeli forces and the evacuation of settlers from the occupied Palestinian territories “without delay”.
