On Prisoners and Sa'adat's Isolation:
What happened today is a blatant criminal attempt to take revenge on comrade commander Ahmad Saadat, for the great value he represents to the Palestinian people and the heroic prisoners.
The storming of "Ramon" prison and the isolation of commander Saadat, Abu Ghalami, and Hanatsheh is an attempt to cover up the incompetence and failure in confronting the resistance. The enemy is experiencing a serious and real crisis as its deterrence system is eroding due to the escalation of resistance in the West Bank, and it is trying to market fictitious victories.
The entire Palestinian people stand behind the prisoners and cannot abandon them; we say that isolating Commander Saadat carries significant risks. We warn of the dangers of isolating Sa'adat and his comrades, and we say that the prisoners, the Palestinian people, and the Popular Front cannot remain silent or allow any harm to Sa'adat or the prisoners.
The resistance, which responded to the martyrdom of Khader Adnan, will not allow the occupation to carry out its criminal plans against the prisoners.
Resistance and Unity:
The Front, alongside all resistance forces, will work to escalate the struggle and resistance to continue exhausting the enemy.
The resistance has many means to respond to the enemy and foil all its plans. We have seen in the recent battles the unity of the fields in responding to the enemy and its crimes.
The option of resistance will not be abandoned by the Front as it is the only option capable of expelling the occupation. Resistance is a right guaranteed by all international laws, and we will not abandon this right; we will continue the struggle and fight whenever possible for the Front.
What is needed is to escalate the resistance and struggle, and the highest levels of field coordination in confronting the enemy. This requires development to reach a united resistance front against the occupation.
The enemy will reap nothing from its crimes but more resistance, and all attempts by the enemy to target our people are futile.
The West Bank is the main battleground with the enemy, where the main battle and resistance are manifested, and it is possible to inflict losses on the enemy there and ultimately thwart its plans based on annexation, settlement, and marketing its racist system.
The confrontation with the enemy is open on all fronts, and the resistance is ongoing, growing stronger day by day among Palestinian youth. We witness the widespread support for the resistance and field unity of the resistance forces.
Normalization and Oslo:
All security meetings with the enemy have proven their failure. The enemy tries to calm the situation and send a message to the resistance and our people because all attempts to besiege the resistance have failed.
They tried the path of negotiations for 30 years, and whoever bets on negotiations and settlements is betting on a mirage. Fascists cannot achieve anything for the Palestinian people.
It is required to cancel the Oslo Accords, withdraw recognition of the enemy, stop all agreements with them, and build genuine national unity.
The Popular Front, along with several forces, is discussing the construction of an initiative based on establishing a third pole to restore national unity based on rebuilding the PLO, the National Council, and holding elections. Several forces have expressed their readiness to adopt this initiative, considering that we are in a critical phase in our people's history, facing a racist zionist government targeting our people's existence.
