New push to class Hamas as terror group

There’s a renewed push for the Swiss government to class Hamas as a terrorist organization.

The Security Commission in the House of Representatives wants to ban Hamas and impose sanctions on the group. 

The commission says the recent attacks proves Hamas is a terrorist organisation.

The foreign minister, Ignazio Cassis, says it could be possible the government takes a position similar to that it’s made with Al-Qaeda and it will be discussed by the Federal Council.
