🟢 Taher Al-Nono, media advisor to the Head of the Political Bureau of Hamas, to Al-Aqsa TV (1/2):
—
The anniversary of Al-Aqsa Flood is an exceptional event in the history of the Palestinian people.

The occupation realized the nature of this battle from the very first moment, declaring that it is an existential battle. This is because the leaders of the occupation saw the potential shape of what the end of this zionist entity could look like.

The scene of the Palestinian fighters as they drag the defeated soldiers, capture them, and enter the zionist cities, taking control of them. Kilometers of land falling into the hands of the Al-Qassam fighters as they cross with full pride, strength, and dignity, destroying the nose of the occupation’s strongest defensive line since its establishment on the Gaza Strip border. The occupation had boasted about these defensive lines, which collapsed within hours in the face of Al-Qassam fighters during a distinguished offensive plan.

Al-Aqsa Flood battle revealed the true giant nature of the Palestinian.

The Palestinian people stand tall on their own in the face of zionist arrogance.

The relationship between Palestinian factions is strong, built on resistance and confronting the occupation.

All Palestinian factions are engaged in resistance under the banner of armed struggle.

The Palestinian fighter showed the world the weakness and fragility of zionist occupation soldiers.

Al-Aqsa Flood battle revealed the true weakness of the zionist entity, showing it cannot rely on itself.

The occupation, which once intimidated the region and boasted in the skies of various countries, is today being struck from Gaza, southern Lebanon, and as far south as Yemen. The Islamic Republic of Iran has targeted this occupation, and it has also been struck by the Iraqi resistance in multiple instances of retaliation. As a result, this inflated balloon has now become something everyone can take a shot at.

The occupation is strategically failing to protect its security. A heroic operation carried out by a Jordanian fighter on the Jordanian-Palestinian border resulted in casualties, setting an example for this nation that rejects the occupation.

Hamas is proud of the united front, committed to the option of resisting the occupier and its removal from Palestinian land.

Al-Aqsa Flood battle has placed the zionist entity in a crisis and in clear distress.

The occupation is failing to achieve any goals in its fascist war on the Gaza Strip.

The Palestinian cause is a unifying cause that no one disagrees on, and it enjoys the support of all.

This is a year of joint action. A year of collective resistance. A year of shared sacrifice. A year of unified coordination at the political level among all Palestinian factions that are resisting in the Gaza Strip and confronting the occupation.

These factions have clearly defined their objectives from the very first moment and are working together. When the goal is clear, the means are clear, and everyone participates in the resistance, in the shedding of blood, in sacrifice, and in political, diplomatic, and media efforts.

Indeed, this is a model to be followed, affirming that the rifle unites us. That resistance unites us. That working for the resistance in the political, diplomatic, legal, and media fields also brings us together.

What used to divide us were those biased compromises and attempts to create harmful discord within the Palestinian people.

Now, all the resistance fighters are rallying around the option of resistance, which is the genuine choice for the Palestinian people. Any other options are divisive, fragmented, and detrimental to the Palestinian cause.
