The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine warned of the American move to establish a temporary seaport on the coast of Gaza for the transfer of aid to the Strip, affirming that it is a suspicious and dubious move that surpasses the goal of relieving our people and paves the way to implementing other malicious objectives, such as displacement schemes under humanitarian guises and various labels.
The Front considered the issuance of instructions by war criminal Biden to establish a temporary port on the coast of Gaza to transfer aid to the Strip as an attempt to cool American public opinion and as electoral propaganda, at a time when no real pressure was exerted to force the occupation to stop its war of starvation or its crimes against the Palestinian people or to facilitate the entry of convoys into the Strip.
This will be dealt with caution and suspicion, especially as we have seen in the behavior and positions of the American administration only steps hostile to our people and biased towards the zionist entity, and that attempts to portray this step as indicating disputes between the American administration and the zionist entity are not accurate. There is a joint zionist-American objective behind this aggression, and a full partnership in the war of genocide and starvation policy.
The Front questioned the American step to establish this seaport at a time when it could impose the introduction of aid on the occupation through other more effective means and force the opening of crossings, especially as there is a capability to provide aid via land route through international institutions, especially the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA).
The Front considered the occupation’s approval of establishing the American maritime pier in light of its refusal to allow aid through official crossings and land routes confirms the existence of malicious objectives behind this pier.
The Front emphasized that the alternative to these suspicious ideas is to press for an end to the aggression, the complete withdrawal of the occupation from the Strip, the return of all displaced persons to their areas and homes from which they were displaced, and the opening of all crossings for the introduction of aid without restriction or condition and distributing it to all areas, including the North and Gaza. Any steps beyond that are futile, suspicious, and hostile to our people.
The Front concluded its statement by affirming that the resistance will remain vigilant, will confront the suspicious American moves and any other moves that push our people towards migration or liquidation of the Palestinian cause or siege and starvation of our people, and that the American presence will be legitimate targets for the resistance.
