Global Protests Urged by Ex-Hamas Chief to Confront Israel

Former Hamas chief, Khaled Meshaal, has called on Muslims worldwide to stage global protests in support of Palestinians on Friday, while urging neighboring Arab countries to take up arms against Israel. Meshaal specifically called on Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, and Jordan to join the fight against Israel, characterizing their involvement as a duty. This comes as Israeli forces continue to retaliate against the Gaza Strip following a deadly attack by Hamas over the weekend, which resulted in numerous casualties. The reprisal airstrikes have killed over 1,100 people and injured more than 5,000 in Gaza.
