Naji was discovered by Ghassan Kanafani in Ain Al-Hilweh, both artists with a shared vision of cultural and armed resistance. While those who carry the rifle carry the biggest burden, we must echo the sound of their bullets into the real world, in all what we do, to transform into real action.

"There is no hope, a single glimmer of hope, except when an 'israeli' is shot. You see? I am saying a clear speech. Who did the operation? We don't know. Sometimes they tell you Amal movement, Abu Nidal's people, Abu Musa's people etc.. We don't care. But for me as a Palestinian citizen, or an Arab citizen, or a human living in this region and enduring in it, I see that this is the path." 

No words can possibly do justice to the contribution to the cause that he has made. What is certain is his legacy to this day inspires and lives on until liberation.

Naji through Handala is one of the main symbols of how words said, art drawn, and stories written can be carved in the hearts and minds of those fighting for liberation, materializing into various forms of resistance, striking and striking with a conscience until freedom.

Naji was martyred. What they don't realize and perhaps never will, is that Naji, the martyr, was undoubtedly the sole survivor on the day of his martyrdom. They should fear martyrs, far more when they are martyred than when they are alive. For their martyrdom only ignites revolution.

And so, until Handala unclasps his hands. Until he turns around and faces us. Until he smiles. Until he can finally start growing up, on the land of Palestine, having been 10 for 75 long years now. We will continue to uphold the thawabet Naji fearlessly dedicated his art to.

Until liberation and return. We continue to resist. Glory to Palestine's living conscience. Naji survives.

🚨 Violent clashes have erupted in Zababdeh, south of #Jenin, after zionist special forces were discovered in the town.

According to circulating reports, the infiltrating occupation army besieged a house in the area and have targeted it with multiple “Energa” shells.

The IOF has completely withdrawn from the site of the incursion around Street 5 in Khan Younis and around Al-Salam Hospital in the southern #Gaza Strip. Several martyrs that rescue crews were unable to retrieve previously are being recovered at this moment.
