The Al-Risala website, which is affiliated with Hamas, presented, Monday, what the terrorist organization defines as "the achievements of the process of sending balloons to Israel." The caption of the illustration, published on the website, shows that "the avenging youths took a new step in launching incendiary balloons to fight the occupation peacefully." The headline makes it clear that from the point of view of the terrorist organization, launching the flares, is part of a "legitimate struggle."

The achievements of the "peaceful struggle" include, according to Hamas, the burning of more than 32,000 dunams in the Gaza vicinity, including 14,237 dunams of agricultural land and 12,086 dunams of nature reserves. The cost of the damage was put at 15 million shekels.
