Palestinian resistance movement Hamas has censured some Arab states over struggling for normalization of relations with Israeli regime warning of plans for rearrange of the region in a bid to integrate Tel Aviv regime.

Addressing the National Islamic Conference held in the Lebanese capital, Beirut, on Saturday, Ismail Haniyeh said there is a plan underway to rearrange the region to suit the American-Israeli agenda, warning that such a plot serves the Zionist enemy by integrating it into the region to confront the resistance front, Lebanon’s al-Ahed news website reported.   

“What the region is witnessing is very dangerous. The ‘Israeli’ entity is being integrated into the region through military alliances to confront Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas,” Haniyeh said at the conference convened to discuss the efforts of the Israeli regime to expand its influence in the region through the normalization of ties and its negative repercussions on the issue of Palestine were discussed.

Haniyeh further called for supporting the resistance as a strategic option in Palestine and the region, and for restoring unity among the regional nations.

His remarks came after Israel’s minister for military affairs proposed formation of a US-led regional military front, featuring Tel Aviv and its Arab allies, against Iran.

Speaking on Tuesday, Benny Gantz cited the Israeli regime’s military cooperation with some Persian Gulf Arab countries as well as Egypt and Jordan, saying there were efforts to expand this cooperation.

The US mediated normalization deals between the occupying regime and the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain in August 2020. Sudan and Morocco followed suit by joining the so-called Abraham Accords.

Saudi Arabia has backed the agreements, and is widely expected to be the next regional Arab state which would forge an official relationship with the regime.

Ganz’s remarks came ahead of a regional visit by US President Joe Biden. The July 13-16 tour will take Biden to Saudi Arabia and the occupied Palestinian territories.

The visit is expected to bring about more gravitation among the regional Arab states and the Israeli regime.

Meanwhile, the deputy secretary General of the Lebanese Hezbollah resistance movement, Sheikh Naim Qassem, who was also present at the conference, warned that "the course of normalization is heading towards military alliances with the occupation entity.”

He also stressed that the exclusive and only solution to confront Israel is "resistance in all its forms, and any other solution is a waste of time."

Referring to the efforts of some Arab countries compromising with the Israeli regime to form military alliances with it, Sheikh Qassem said "Israel believes that it will cause concerns in the resistance front through threats, but I say that they are empty threats."

"However, we are fully prepared and we are on full alert about the big maneuver and we are ready every day," he continued, adding, "Today we are in our strongest position with our allies in Palestine and the resistance front."

Sheikh Qassem further described the US threats against the resistance front as sheer rhetoric, saying "It is ridiculous for the United States to declare a "Middle East [version of] NATO" that includes the Arab states whose control is in the hands of the Israeli regime," he stressed.

"This alliance will disgrace them," he added.

He also recalled that the main protectors of the Palestinian cause are the Palestinian people and the nation’s resistance, adding that the Palestinians would not give up one iota of their lands even if some Muslim countries abandon the Palestinian cause.

He concluded by saying that the countries that have normalized relations with the Zionist regime will harm themselves first, then their own people, Palestine and Palestinians.
