The eagles of the clash: the comrades who, armed with an iron will, two pistols, and three grenades, raised the heads of the homeland from the center of Nablus.
Our story today is about the two leaders of the PFLP's Martyr Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades, Yamen Faraj (Abu Nasreen), the Brigades' commander-in-chief, and his comrade and deputy Amjad Mulaitat (Abu Watan). Both were activists in their younger days, Yamen being the secretary of the PSLF as a student at Al-Najah, and Amjad having joined the PFLP at 14 years of age.
Both carried out daring operations and clashes together. Both were pursued by the occupation for years until their martyrdom together in a heroic armed clash on this day 19 years ago.
Our comrades left us on a day not dissimilar to today's epics of victory, turning defense into offense, and teaching zionist forces lessons that they could never forget: "Are you on the covenant, my friend?," Yamen asked. "On the covenant," Amjad replied. Outnumbered, our heroes persevered despite rocket fire, tanks, and gunfire from all directions. Bang—the first bullets of the eagles immediately neutralized invading forces. Boom—a grenade supports them. Our heroes rushed, grabbing an IOF machine gun and rocket launcher.
One of the eagles was hit.
"My friend, you have a chance to retreat. Go, and I will cover your back."
"I told you. On the covenant, my friend."
Yamen ascended to martyrdom moments later. For two hours, Amjad continued the legendary clash. One bullet was left in his gun, and he lay injured as a zionist soldier approached to flip him over. Bang—Amjad fired his final bullet into the zionist's skull. Bang, bang, bang, bang—Amjad was martyred by the IOF, refusing to die a natural death and only under showers of bullets.
The clash lasted over four hours. The zionist forces paid a heavy toll in blood: the eagles killed the unit officer, and several soldiers were injured.
At the top of their lungs, our heroes shouted: "The Eagles of the Martyr Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades will not surrender!"

On the ninth anniversary of the Battle of Al-Asf Al-Ma’koul:
Our battle with the enemy continues in all arenas of the homeland, and the popular solidarity with the resistance paves the way towards liberation and return.
This year, our people commemorate the ninth anniversary of our people and our brave resistance's victory in the Gaza Strip against the zionist occupation in the heroic Battle of Al-Asf Al-Ma’koul, along with the victory achieved by the resistance fighters, revolutionaries, and people of Jenin and its camp, in their response to the aggression, thwarting the fascist enemy government's plans to undermine the will of our revolutionary people and youth, and to suppress the rising flame of resistance throughout the occupied West Bank. This commitment confirms that the unity of our people and our resistance is unbreakable, and that it is capable of thwarting the plans of the occupation and making it pay the price for its aggression and crimes against our land, people, and sanctities. The terrorism of the occupation will only increase our determination and adherence to comprehensive resistance as a way to snatch our rights and liberate our land and sanctities.
Every year, on the seventh of July, our Palestinian people recall an important station of the struggle and victory against the zionist enemy, the Battle of Al-Asf Al-Ma’koul. Its heroics, sacrifices, and surprises constituted a distinctive landmark and a prominent symbol of resistance and struggle, along with the preceding Battle of Al-Furqan and the successive stages of struggle on all levels, including political, military, media, and popular, and last but not least the Saif (Sword of) Al-Quds battle, the Revenge of the Free battle, and the Fury of Jenin battle. These battles will not break the will of our people but increase our strength, determination, and readiness to respond to aggression, defending our land, Al-Quds, Al-Aqsa, and prisoners, deterring the occupation, and consolidating equations and paths in confrontation with it, until it is defeated from our land and all our legitimate rights are snatched.
In all those critical stages in the journey of our resistance, we remember with pride and appreciation the heroism and sacrifices of the brave men of our resistance, mourn the convoys of our righteous martyrs, pray for the speedy recovery of the wounded and injured, and salute and strengthen the hands of our people and steadfast families, who embodied the basic cradle and support for the resistance in the Gaza Strip and throughout the occupied West Bank. We call on the masses of our people inside and outside the refugee camps and the diaspora to further unite, tighten ranks, unify efforts, strengthen all forms of steadfastness and adherence to rights, and rally around the choice of comprehensive resistance as a way to achieve aspirations for liberation, return, and the establishment of the Palestinian state with Al-Quds as its capital.

🟢 The Martyr Izz El-Din Al-Qassam Brigades shared a video commemorating the heroic "Zikim" naval base invasion operation that took place on this day in 2014 during the Asf Al-Ma'koul battle. It was a fatal and surprising blow for the dying entity.
On July 8th, 2014, four Al-Qassam naval commandos set off from the shores of Gaza to the shores of occupied Asqalan. 8 kilometers south of the occupied city, the "Zikim" IOF naval base is a frequent missile target of the resistance in Gaza.
Prior to the execution of the operation, Al-Qassam reconnaissance units monitored the naval base for hours to ensure a clear entry for the naval commando unit. The four commandos then advanced and intensely clashed with the enemy soldiers, including directly planting a high-impact explosive device on an enemy tank from point blank range. The operation was a fatal blow to the enemy's placebo of security, embarrassing their leaders. The fighters killed multiple IOF soldiers and injured many others.
The four heroes of the naval commando unit that infiltrated the IOF naval base were martyred by an enemy airstrike while withdrawing after having successfully completed their mission. The heroic martyrs are: Hasan Al-Hindi, Khaled Al-Hilo, Bashar Abid, and Mohammad Abu Diyeh.
Eternal glory to our resisting and heroic martyrs who instill fear into the enemy, attacking their false security establishment from the air, the sea, from the ground, and below it. Glory to those who refuse to surrender or negotiate. Glory to those who choose to speak with the enemy in the only language they understand, the language of bullets and blood. Glory, glory, glory.
