On a show that aired on Al-Aqsa TV (Hamas-Gaza) on January 27, 2023, Hamas TV host Raji Al-Hams saluted Khairy Alqam, the terrorist who earlier that night carried out the Jerusalem synagogue massacre that left seven Israelis dead. He said that Alqam brought “happiness and joy” to the Palestinians and that through him, Allah satisfied the Palestinians’ lust for revenge. Al-Hams added: “We salute and cherish you, oh hero, oh martyrdom-seeking mujahid!”
