“And We wanted to bestow favor upon those who were oppressed in the land and make them leaders and make them inheritors.”To the masses of our steadfast, fighting, and patient people, to our resisting, determined, and steadfast families in the brave West Bank, its proud cities, and its camps – the reservoir of the revolution:
Peace be upon the martyrs, the noblest among us all, peace be upon those who sacrificed their blood so that we may live, who wrote with their blood the most remarkable tales of heroism and sacrifice, and who continue to draw for us a picture of pride and glory, of martyrdom and victory.
Peace be upon their families, their loved ones, and their companions. Peace be upon our brave wounded. Peace be upon our heroic prisoners in the occupation’s jails. Peace be upon our fighting West Bank, upon Jenin, Tulkarem, Tubas, Nablus, Areeha, and upon the camps, the proud countryside, and its heroic people.
A salute of reverence and honor to you from your triumphant Saraya and its fighting brigades, which have written the most epic tales of bravery and engaged in battle after battle in defense of our people in the West Bank and Gaza. We have offered up our leaders and fighters as martyrs to remain the spearhead of the resistance and the guardians of the cause from being lost.
Your victorious Saraya, alongside all the free factions of the resistance, continue with strength and honor to escalate the resistance in the West Bank, its proud governorates, camps, and villages, where the enemy witnesses the might of its fighters daily. We have always been, and will continue to be, the sword poised over the necks of the zionists. Your brave brigades remain steadfast, victorious for you and for your wounds, offering all that is precious for this cause. Your Saraya have always been the upper hand in every battle and confrontation, the ones with the decisive word in the field of resistance.
To the masses of our proud, fighting people…
As we live through the steadfastness of the battle of Al-Aqsa Flood, where we are writing the first steps of victory and liberation alongside the fighters of our people in Gaza and the supporting fronts, we speak to you as some have wagered on our retreat or hesitation. But never! We will remain the loyal shield for the blood of our people. We have offered our finest leaders and founders, and we continue to offer sacrifices along this blessed path of steadfastness and liberation. At the same time, the [Palestinian] Authority’s apparatus continues its treacherous role of pursuing the wanted fighters, firing at them, and setting ambushes for them, in an attempt to divert the resistance from its course against the enemy.
To the loyal sons of the resistance in the West Bank…
Amidst this battle, we affirm the following:
1- We, in Saraya Al-Quds, have not and will not divert our weapons, by the grace of Allah and the determination of our fighters, who showed the enemy some of their might in Qabatiya this morning. We believe the message has reached the enemy and its collaborators. What they witnessed today in Qabatiya, in Qalqilya, and before that in “Tel Aviv,” is only a glimpse of our might. What is coming, with Allah’s permission, will be more severe and more bitter.
2- We warn the zionist enemy against attempting any aggression or launching a wide-scale attack on the cities of the West Bank, attempting to annex lands, or implementing the dreams of its extremists and its defeated military leaders. Any foolish step will be met with immediate retaliation from the blood of its leaders, soldiers, and settlers. The enemy knows us well.
3- Our brigades in the West Bank affirm that they are in wide coordination with all the fighters of our people to organize and unify the resistance in accordance with the demands and conditions of the battlefield.
4- Under no circumstances will we allow anyone, whoever they may be, to take away the weapons of the resistance or to alter its direction or compass. Our weapons, across our extended brigades, will remain directed toward the enemy.
5- We affirm that our fighters are in excellent condition, in the best of spirits and determination, their resolve reaching the skies. Our heroes will not allow the isolation and targeting of the Jenin battalion and its loyal fighters in the camp that has given, and continues to give, martyrs.
6- We have followed the zionist assassination operation against the fighters of our loyal people in Jenin camp while the [Palestinian] Authority completes the zionist role by besieging the camp and depriving its people of basic necessities, as a form of collective punishment no different from the methods of the enemy’s leaders against our people in Gaza.
7- We renew our pledge, loyalty, and pride in our steadfast people in proud Gaza, in besieged Jenin, in our martyrs, our wounded, and our prisoners. We affirm to you that we will continue resisting this occupation until the last bullet and the last fighter. No retreat, no surrender. It is either victory or martyrdom.
A salute to our steadfast people in all cities, towns, villages, and camps for their resilience and great sacrifices in defense of the resistance project and for embracing our people and fighters despite the harsh conditions.
Our jihad continues and our weapons remain raised in all arenas.
