In occasion of the 1st anniversary of the Al-Aqsa Flood, the Joint Operations Room of the Palestinian Resistance has released a statement. We share hereby some excerpts highlighting the international support to Palestine, as well as the support of the Palestinian people and unity of the Palestinian National Resistance Front:
“A year has passed since the start of the Al-Aqsa Flood Battle, which ignited from the Gaza Strip on October 7th and whose impact has reached every corner of the earth. The free peoples of the world rose up, each resisting as they could – some supported our people’s resistance with arms and combat, while others protested, demonstrated, and provided political support, which is the least they could do.”
“The unity of the combatants in the field over the past year, through relentless combat and heroic defense against the aggression, has been remarkable. It added strength to all resistance forces, which supported each other with information, weapons, men, and combat, standing shoulder to shoulder, inflicting heavy losses on the enemy’s soldiers and vehicles. They set traps in every street, neighborhood, and alley, sending a clear message to the enemy: Our people and factions are united in adopting resistance as the destiny of all occupied peoples and their sacred right. These combatants are the sons of our great people, our selfless families, our steadfast clans, and our proud cities and villages. Without the support of our people for their fighters and heroes, without the steadfastness of our people in the face of unprecedented aggression and genocide, and without their rejection of displacement plans, the combatants would not have been able to withstand the enemy’s overwhelming military force.”
“Our brave West Bank did not hesitate to join this Flood that shook the pillars of the occupation. Its courageous fighters rose against the occupation’s army and its military outposts and settler gangs. They executed heroic operations in the West Bank and within the occupied territories, establishing fortified bases in several Palestinian cities and camps, where resistance combatants from all factions collaborated, developed their tools, and confronted the occupation forces that sought to uproot them and punish them for their resistance.”
