Following are excerpts from several statements made by Hamas clerics on the eruption of the Iceland volcano, aired on Al-Aqsa TV on April 22 and 30, 2010.

April 22, 2010:
Preacher at a Friday sermon in Gaza: We heard with our own ears and saw with our own eyes what happened at the beginning of this week in Europe.
