Occupation forces fire a large amount of tear gas canisters towards Palestinian homes in the Bustan neighborhood of Silwan near the occupied capital of #AlQuds.
Tamer was one of the most prominent leaders of the Lions' Den and among its fiercest fighters. He was known to be a kind soul, kissing his mother's and father's hands every time he saw them. It is reported that he was assassinated today by an explosive device planted on his bike. On his path we shall remain.
Glory to our martyrs.
Glory to our martyrs.

----------------------------------------------
In the name of Allah, the most Gracious, the most Merciful
"And do not say to those who are killed in the way of God that they are dead; rather they are alive, but you do not perceive it."
This is the truth of Allah Almighty.

Our people in the Mountain of Fire, our people stationed in Palestine—all of Palestine—at exactly 1:30 this morning today, the commando knight of freedom left us. The martyred hero Tamer al-Kilani is our molten lion and one of the fiercest fighters of the Lions' Den.
This came at the hands of the treacherous occupation which used a planted TNT bomb. This was done in the same way that the martyr [Osama] Jawabra as well as "AlGaddafi" [Bassem] Abu Sarya were assassinated. May Allah have mercy on them both.
This occupation does not have military honor, and it knows nothing about us. It does not study us; it only studies the ways of evil, villainy, and treachery. We in the Lions' Den swear to reveal the details of the assassination of the martyr Tamer. We promise the occupation and [Aviv] Kochavi a harsh and painful response.
We ask that our people rally around their resistance. We say to the West Bank, to every citizen that can enter Nablus, to our people in the Mountain of Fire: participate in the funeral of this hero, for by Allah, he deserves it. We invite you to bury his body today. Let his funeral be a public referendum on the Den and the resistance. We call on our people to completely mourn our hero. We will leave the issue of a strike to the competent authorities, but we say to them: we are not numbers, and the blood of our righteous martyrs is more precious than any money or a "normal" life under this occupation.
Our blood and the blood of our people flow. Today, we present to this country the best of our soldiers, advancing one Lion after another until we collectively attain victory and liberation, or martyrdom all together.
This is our covenant. And we will certainly take revenge in the form a severe and vicious reply to the evil enemy.
Your brothers, the Lions' Den

Two emotional goodbyes in Nablus to the soul of the father, husband, business-owner, martyr Tamer Al-Kilani. His father, and his brother, who says "I love you. I swear you are my support. It's too early for you..."
Mourners console and embrace the family; Tamer's younger brother is told by mourners not to cry, teaching him the generational resolve and pride that is characteristic of Palestinians. Mourners say, "Let us pray for his soul" instead.
This is unity; this is community.
This cowardly assassination was an attempt to tear the steadfast community of Nablus apart, the heart of our resistance. Yet, the enemy fails, and community prevails.
Tamer fought for our honor and our land and our future. When one Lion falls, one hundred rise.
