Palestinian groups laud resistance fighters’ ‘heroic’ battle against ‘israel’
Palestinian factions have praised resistance fighters for their “heroic” battle against the Israeli aggression, saying they framed a new model of resilience against the enemy.
In a statement released on Saturday, the Palestinian resistance group of Hamas said that the head of its political bureau Ismail Haniyeh, the Islamic Jihad’s deputy chief Mohammad al-Hindi, and Jamil Mazhar, deputy secretary general of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), had held a meeting.
“The attendees praised the courageous, heroic performance of all the resistance brigades and their field unity … that have given and continue to give the enemy a lesson it will never forget,” the statement read.
“They presented the world with a new model in conflict management” and confronting the aggression.
They also hailed the “legendary steadfastness” and “solid will” of the Palestinian people amid Israel’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.
They further discussed efforts towards putting an end to the Gaza onslaught and an Israeli withdrawal of forces from the besieged territory, as well as the release of Palestinian abductees held in the occupying regime’s jails.
Israel waged its brutal war against Gaza on October 7 after Hamas carried out a historic operation against the usurping entity in retaliation for its intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
The Tel Aviv regime has so far killed at least 34,388 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured 77,437 others.
Also in their meeting, the representatives of the Palestinian groups emphasized the need for developing cooperation in order to thwart the occupation’s schemes and secure a free and independent Palestine.
They lauded the global support for the Palestinian people and their cause and sent greetings to the resistance front from Lebanon to Yemen, Syria, Iraq, and Iran.
