Head of Hamas’s Political Bureau Ismail Haneyya on Sunday said that the Palestinian resistance will not allow Israel to impose new rules of war.
During the funeral of two children killed by an Israeli airstrike on Gaza Saturday Haneyya said that many parties intervened to stop the escalation adding that the Palestinian resistance has the “stronger word”.
As for getting the resistance to restore calm on the front while Israel’s planes are killing people in Gaza the Hamas leader stressed it is unacceptable for “this enemy” to impose new rules of war.
He vowed that resistance factions in the Gaza Strip would retaliate for any further Israeli attacks on the coastal enclave.
Haneyya affirmed that the Palestinian resistance will spare no effort to protect the Great March of Return protests which helped draw the international community’s attention to the suffering of the Palestinian people in Gaza.
“Either the siege is lifted or you will face more intense and stronger marches” he said.
He continued to say “The Deal of the Century was born dead. No Palestinian or regional party will dare to agree to a deal rejected by our people and resistance factions.”
Haneyya touched on a meeting he had held earlier in the day with UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process Nikolay Mladenov. He said “Everyone is looking for a solution while the answer is clear: lift the unjust siege on Gaza. The Palestinian people no longer believe your promises. They want real results that end the siege once and forever.”
He said that Gaza border protests will continue until all their objectives are achieved particularly ending the blockade and reviving the right of return in the memory of the new generations.
He stressed that while conspiracies are being plotted to liquidate the Palestinian cause the Palestinian people in Gaza Jerusalem and everywhere stand to say no to Donald Trump’s Deal of the Century and any project that involves relinquishing any inch of the Palestinian land.
