Tens of thousands of Palestinians on Friday morning performed Eid al-Fitr prayer in the Great March of Return camps east of Gaza and Khan Younis cities.

The Eid prayer was attended by men women and children in addition to leaders from the Palestinian resistance movements.

Member of Hamas’s Political Bureau Khalil al-Hayya said during the Eid sermon east of Gaza city that the Great March of Return protests will continue until the siege is broken and the refugees’ right of return is restored.

Al-Hayya held the Israeli occupation responsible for the repercussions of the ongoing blockade on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

He affirmed that the Palestinians are determined to return to their lands break the siege and put an end to all conspiracies aimed at liquidating the Palestinian cause stressing the need for achieving national unity.

For his part the Islamic Jihad leader Khader Habib said during the Eid sermon in the Return camps east of Khan Younis city south of the Gaza Strip that the Palestinian people have proved through the Great March of Return protests that they have no intention to give up any part of Palestine including Jerusalem.

Habib stressed that performing the Eid prayer near the border fence confirms that the Palestinians will follow the path of the martyrs killed in the protests until their demands are fulfilled.
