The Front extends its deepest condolences to the family of the late comrade, his comrades, and friends, and emphasizes that the Palestinian people, the Popular Front, the free people of the world, and the international solidarity movement have lost an artist and internationalist fighter who joined the ranks of the Palestinian revolution and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine since the mid-1970s.
He offered his art and talent in drawing and design in service of the Palestinian cause, the revolution’s library, and the Front’s archive, particularly in the magazine Al-Hadaf, which boasts hundreds of drawings and designs documenting the Palestinian people’s struggle against the zionist enemy and the details of their displacement and Nakba, in addition to dozens of famous posters he designed for the Popular Front’s events and milestones, including the launch, the Tel al-Zaatar massacre, Land Day, workers, the Intifada, International Women’s Day, prisoners, and Children’s Day. The comrade fought alongside his comrades in Lebanon during the battles of the Palestinian revolution and later lived a life moving between Arab and European countries, opposing Western imperialist criminal policies, as a result of which he was arrested multiple times by the Swiss authorities.
As the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine bids farewell to this internationalist fighter and artist, it pledges to remain faithful to his sacrifices and to carry on the principles for which he fought and dedicated his life. His revolutionary designs will remain a living testament to the struggle of our people and the justice of their cause, and their right to resist occupation until the victory over imperialism and zionism is achieved.
